Objective of the CfP: To fund interdisciplinary projects combining an integrated One Health approach (human, animal, ecosystem health) and digital technologies to:
- Understand the mechanisms of emergence, selection, and transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), particularly in underexplored ecosystems;
- Innovate via:
- The discovery of new therapeutic targets;
- Digital tools (including AI) to predict antimicrobial susceptibility from genomic data;
- Digital solutions to improve infection surveillance and the appropriate use of antimicrobials (prescription assistance, prevention).
It particularly targets multi/interdisciplinary approaches and encourages inclusion that can combine life sciences, human and veterinary medicine, social sciences and humanities, mathematics, physical and computer sciences, chemistry, or engineering sciences.
The submission of projects involving overseas territories and in synergy with national and international strategies is also encouraged.
