Science|Business Database: Coronavirus Funding Opportunities

Solutions will aim to protect service providers and caregivers from COVID-19 and to minimize the risk of transmission with personal protective and medical equipment.

Proposals should focus on how information technology can change the way the pandemic is handled. Projects should be able to be rapidly implemented through public and private channels, with large scaling possibilities and technology transfer.

Funding for public and private research into COVID-19 in the areas of epidemiological studies, diagnostics, therapeutics, behavioural science, mental health, and the development of medical and ICT devices.

Funding for organisations with solutions that can be implemented immediately to contribute to support decision-making, as well as to inform the clinical and public health response.

A broad-based call for research with goals deliverable in the short term.

Projects should use integrated technologies and clinical workflows to contribute to traditional and non-traditional and temporary healthcare facilities.

The goal of this call is to redirect projects funded by the Academy of Finland towards COVID-19 research.

Funding for projects that focus on working on women, peace and security and humanitarian issues; and on providing gender-responsive responses to the COVID19 crisis.

Developing technological solutions, products or services to tackle the economic, societal and health impact of the pandemic.

The projects will focus on prophylactics, therapeutics and diagnostics to contribute in the short term to dealing with the current outbreak. Proposals must be made by a consortium to increase their likelihood of impact.
