Context

This call for proposals aims to support innovative, collaborative research projects. The call comprises a "classic" main component for funding research projects, and a complementary component designed to encourage the Training-Research link. For the main component, the amount of the grant can be up to 25,000 euros, but a smaller amount can also be requested, depending on the needs of the project. The pedagogical component provides funding for a pedagogical action based on the research project (maximum amount 6,000 euros).

  • Projects last 12 months.
  • The total budget for the main component is 100,000 euros.

Eligibility criteria

Research theme

IMI gives priority to the collaborative nature of projects within the Institute. This call for proposals is open to all research themes, and all topics covered by the Institute are eligible. Multi-disciplinary and inter-laboratory projects are encouraged. The call for proposals must include details of the project's scientific background, research program and expected spin-offs.

Research team

Projects must indicate the name of a correspondent with whom the Institute's management will correspond. The entire team must be presented. The complementary nature of the team must be detailed. The role of non-permanent staff involved in the project (interns, PhD students, post docs) must also be specified. This call for proposals will not fund human resources (PhD students or post-docs, for example). It may, however, fund internship stipends.

Eligible expenses

The purpose of this call for proposals is to finance the operating and capital expenditure required to carry out the proposed scientific project. All expenses must be detailed, and in particular those relating to missions (from and/or to the institute) and internship gratification expenses. A quotation (or list price) must be provided for equipment purchases (any item costing more than 800 euros excluding VAT, unit value). When estimating the financial cost of the project, it is possible to include additional external funding. In this case, you need to specify the amount and whether it has already been obtained, applied for or is to be applied for.
