28.10.2021 - 31.12.2022
Public Health 2022 is a new project call within the Vienna Science and Technology Fund (WWTF) Life Sciences programme. It is the first project call with this theme and is open to
· researchers and scientists at universities and non-university research institutions in Vienna, including those moving to Vienna;
· who seek to conduct a cutting-edge research project (2 to 4 years) in public health, to improve and protect health at a population level. Proposals should address public health challenges of high relevance for the Vienna region.
· Proposals should consider the development and exploration of new methods and tools, or their application in use-cases, as appropriate.
· Proposals should bring together scientists from across different disciplines, such as from biological, quantitative/computer, and social sciences (interdisciplinary). Proposals may also include stakeholder groups in the design and execution of research projects (transdisciplinary).
· Proposals that adopt a ‘Health in All Policies’ approach are highly encouraged.
· Clinical trials and projects that focus solely on COVID-19 immediate response will not be funded.
· A total of € 3 million has been dedicated to this call. The funding range per project is € 250,000 to € 500,000.
This is a two-stage call. Short proposals must be submitted by 18th of January 2022. Upon invitation, full proposals must be submitted by 17th May 2022.
