European Network of Centres of Excellence for ATMPs
Funds the coordination of up to ten existing advanced-therapy research centres into one European network, with a shared roadmap for scaling up gene and cell therapy manufacturing.
The European Commission funds a single Coordination and Support Action, paid as a lump sum, to build the network's roadmap, common training programmes and an advisory board of Member State, industry and patient representatives. Evaluators score proposals against Excellence, Impact and Implementation, each needing a threshold score of at least 4, with a cumulative threshold of at least 12 across al…
This call is for existing, established centres already performing the full range of advanced-therapy research, from discovery through clinical trials, inside a life-sciences biocluster with GMP manufacturing capability. It funds their coordination into a network of no more than ten Centres of Excellence with complementary expertise across different ATMP technologies.
