Leveraging R&I knowledge on microbiome
Funds one consortium to run a microbiome research one-stop-shop and coordination hub for EU policymakers and regulators.
This is a Coordination and Support Action, evaluated in a single stage and paid as a lump sum, with the Commission funding exactly one project for this topic's full EUR 2,000,000 for 2026. Applicants use the standard Coordination and Support Actions application form on the EU Funding & Tenders Portal, together with a detailed lump-sum cost table. Beyond building the resource centre and monitoring β¦
This call wants a single project to build a resource centre and monitoring body for EU microbiome research, mapping ongoing and past projects and identifying research gaps. It wants the hub to give policymakers guidance on microbiome links to human health, climate, environment, agriculture and food, under a One Health approach.
