Past calls for proposals
Tremplin – ERC Advanced Grant (T-ERC AdG) 2026
Designed to improve France’s success rate in European Research Council (ERC) calls, Tremplin-ERC (T-ERC) is a funding instrument set up by ANR as part of its Work Programme 2026. T-ERC is open to all ERC research disciplines (LS, PE, SH).
Bilateral cooperation ANR – JST CREST 2026 for two research areas: "Symbiotic AI Interdisciplinary System" and "Prediction Mathematical Foundation"
The signing of the bilateral agreement between the ANR and the JST (Japanese science and technology agency) for the promotion of scientific and technological cooperation has led to the opening up of the emblematic Japanese CREST programme (Core Research for Evolutionary Science and Technology) to the participation of French teams in Japanese projects.
Appel à projets ANR - NRF Intelligence artificielle pour les biotechnologies
As long-standing partners in research and innovation, France and South Korea reaffirmed their desire to join forces to step up their scientific cooperation by identifying promising thematic priorities at the 8th Joint Strategic Committee on Science and Technology, held in Paris on 20 June 2023*.
Setting up European or International Scientific Networks (MRSEI)
In the framework of its 2026 Work Programme, the French National Research Agency (ANR) proposes the MRSEI call with a continuous submission format throughout the year with two scheduled selection sessions.
Call for applications – Chairs of Excellence: Tremplin Outre-Mer
The overseas territories are strategic areas for French research, due to: their environmental, climatic, health, societal and cultural specificities; their geographical position in key areas (Caribbean, Amazonia, Indian Ocean, Pacific); their potential for scientific and diplomatic influence at the regional (basins) and international levels.
Call for projects – FLASH "Scientific cooperations France-Greenland" 2026 Edition
Greenland now occupies a unique place at the crossroads of major scientific issues and growing geopolitical tensions. A key territory for the understanding of global climate and environmental dynamics, it is also affected by rapid transformations affecting its ecosystems, natural resources, infrastructure and inhabitants, the majority of whom are indigenous.
INDUSTRIAL CHAIRS - 2026
The aim of this program is threefold: To conduct and structure scientific research in strategic and priority areas via an effective and lasting partnership between public and private organisms.
Joint call for proposal "Chlordécone II : societies and multi exposure"
Chlordecone is an organochlorine insecticide used worldwide since the 1960s. Due to its high toxicity, biomagnification and long-term persistence in the environment, it was banned in France in 1990, except in the French West Indies, where it was authorized for soil application to control banana weevils until 1993. Over more than two decades of use, this pesticide has heavily contaminated ecosystems, with deleterious consequences for the environment and health.
Call for projects – FLASH: Pox virus in farmed ruminants
France, like Europe, is facing the emergence on its territory of highly contagious animal viral diseases caused by poxviruses, mainly affecting ruminant livestocks. Recent outbreaks, such as lumpy skin disease in cattle, have revealed the vulnerability of livestock systems and highlighted the need for the rapid availability of robust scientific knowledge and operational tools to anticipate, monitor and control these health crises, in order to limit their economic and social impacts.
Call for proposals : ACCESS ERC STARTING GRANTS 2026
The Access ERC 2026 call is open exclusively to disciplines in the Social Sciences and Humanities.
