A strong European bio-based industrial sector will significantly reduce Europe’s dependency on fossil-based products, help the EU meet climate change targets, and lead to greener and more environmentally friendly growth. The key is to develop new biorefining technologies to sustainably transform renewable natural resources into bio-based products, materials and fuels. This nascent sector is expected to grow rapidly and create new markets and jobs, and is already attracting substantial investments in the US, China and Brazil. The EU has the industrial, research and renewable resources potential. It is now a matter of deploying it in a sustainable manner to compete in the global bioeconomy race. Focus. Feedstock: foster a sustainable biomass supply with increased productivity and building new supply chains. Biorefineries: optimise efficient processing through R&D and demonstrate their efficiency and economic viability at large-scale demo/flagship biorefineries. Markets, products and policies: develop markets for bio-based products and optimise policy frameworks

The Humanities in the European Research Area (HERA) is a network among a growing number of National Humanities funding Agencies across Europe. Currently HERA is a partnership between 24 Humanities Research Councils and the European Commission, with the aim of establishing the humanities in the European Research Area and in the European Commission Framework Programmes. In 2009, HERA launched its first Joint Research Programme (HERA JRP) under the themes "Cultural Dynamics: Inheritance and Identity" and "Humanities as a Source of Creativity and Innovation”. In 2012, HERA launched its second Joint Research Programme (HERA JRP) under the theme " Cultural Encounters". In 2015 HERA launched its third Joint Research Programme under the theme “Uses of the Past”.

The European Research Council supports frontier research, cross disciplinary proposals and pioneering ideas in new and emerging fields which introduce unconventional and innovative approaches. The ERC's mission is to encourage the highest quality research in Europe through competitive funding and to support investigator-driven frontier research across all fields of research, on the basis of scientific excellence. A total budget of 13 095 million euro is available for the implementation of the ERC funding schemes under Horizon 2020.

Future and emerging technologies will support collaborative research in order to extend Europe’s capacity for advanced and paradigm-changing innovation. They will foster scientific collaboration across disciplines on radically new, high-risk ideas and accelerate development of the most promising emerging areas of science and technology as well as the Union-wide structuring of the corresponding scientific communities.

This pillar aims to speed up development of the technologies and innovations that will underpin tomorrow's businesses and help innovative European SMEs to grow into world-leading companies. It consists of three specific objectives: "Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies" will provide dedicated support for research, development and demonstration and, where appropriate, for standardisation and certification, on information and communications technology (ICT), nanotechnology, advanced materials, biotechnology, advanced manufacturing and processing and space. Emphasis will be placed on interactions and convergence across and between the different technologies and their relations to societal challenges. User needs will be taken into account in all these fields. "Access to risk finance" will aim to overcome deficits in the availability of debt and equity finance for R&D and innovation-driven companies and projects at all stages of development. Together with the equity instrument of the Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and small and medium-sized enterprises (COSME) (2014‑2020) it will support the development of Union-level venture capital. "Innovation in SMEs" will provide SME-tailored support to stimulate all forms of innovation in SMEs, targeting those with the potential to grow and internationalise across the single market and beyond. The goal is to make Europe a more attractive location to invest in research and innovation (including eco-innovation), by promoting activities where businesses set the agenda. It will provide major investment in key industrial technologies, maximise the growth potential of European companies by providing them with adequate levels of finance and help innovative SMEs to grow into world-leading companies.

Endowing researchers with new skills and a wider range of competences, while offering them attractive working conditions, is a crucial aspect of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions. In addition to mobility between countries, the actions also seek to break the real and perceived barriers between academic and other sectors, especially business. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions follow a "bottom-up" approach, i.e. individuals and organisations working in any area of research can apply for funding. The objective of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions is to support the career development and training of researchers – with a focus on innovation skills – in all scientific disciplines through worldwide and cross-sector mobility. For this, the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions provide grants at all stages of researchers' careers, from PhD candidates to highly experienced researchers, and encourage transnational, intersectoral and interdisciplinary mobility. There are four main types of Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions: research networks (ITN) support for Innovative Training Networks that develop new researchers; individual fellowships (IF) support for experienced researchers undertaking mobility between countries, with the option to work outside academia; research and innovation staff exchanges (RISE) for international and inter-sectoral cooperation; co-funding of regional, national and international programmes (COFUND) that finance research training or fellowships involving mobility to or from another country. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions also funds the European Researchers' Night (NIGHT), Choose translations of the previous link public events involving researchers which take place every year across Europe on the fourth Friday of September.

“Science with and for Society” will be instrumental in addressing the European societal challenges tackled by Horizon 2020, building capacities and developing innovative ways of connecting science to society. It will help build effective cooperation between science and society, to recruit new talent for science and to pair scientific excellence with social awareness and responsibility .

Agriculture, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture, together with the bio-based industries, are integral parts of the European economy and society. Relying on the use of limited natural resources, these sectors produce and process biological resources to satisfy the demand of consumers and a wide range of industries for food, feed, bio-energy and bio-based products. While they enhance Europe’s self-reliance and provide jobs and business opportunities essential for rural, coastal and marine areas, these sectors are also facing significant challenges which require solutions based on research and innovation.

Reducing inequalities and social exclusion in Europe (80 million people at risk of poverty, 14 million young people not in education, employment or training), overcoming the economic and financial crisis and tackling unemployment (12% in EU and above 20% of youth unemployment in 2012) are crucial challenges for the future of Europe. At the same time, there is great potential for Europe through opportunities provided, for example, by new forms of innovation and by the engagement of citizens. Supporting inclusive, innovative and reflective societies is a prerequisite for a sustainable European integration.

Responding to this challenge, research and innovation (R&I) under Horizon 2020 is an investment in better health for all. It aims to keep older people active and independent for longer and supports the development of new, safer and more effective interventions. R&I under Horizon 2020 also contributes to the sustainability of health and care systems.

New european research and innovation program 2014-2020. One of the 3 major pillars is called "societal challenges": a challenge-based approach that will bring together resources and knowledge across different fields, technologies and disciplines, including social sciences and the humanities. This will cover activities from research to market with a new focus on innovation-related activities. Funding will focus on the following challenges: • Health, demographic change and wellbeing; • Food security, sustainable agriculture and forestry, marine and maritime and inland water research, and the Bioeconomy; • Secure, clean and efficient energy; • Smart, green and integrated transport; • Climate action, environment, resource efficiency and raw materials; • Europe in a changing world - inclusive, innovative and reflective societies; • Secure societies - protecting freedom and security of Europe and its citizens.

The European Union sees significant internal disparities in terms of research and innovation performance. So greater commitment by the low-performing Member States and regions can be instrumental. This focus will enable the European Research Area to function in a more streamlined and homogeneous way, where the individual strengths of every Member State and region may be optimised. Furthermore, research and innovation performance is correlated with the efficiency of the national research and innovation systems. Technical assistance and expertise is needed for those low performing Member States and regions to improve their research and innovation systems and policies. Moreover, participation in the EU Framework Programmes is increasingly dependent on networking and staying connected with partners across the EU. It is imperative for those pockets of excellence in Europe to enter and remain on the "framework programmes grid", thus facilitating access to networks and partnering opportunities. Two specific measures (among others): TEAMING will invest in Europe’s research and innovation potential through supporting the creation of new (or upgrading of existing) Centres of Excellence on the basis of partnerships with internationally leading institutions. TWINNING aims to build on the huge potential of networking for excellence through knowledge transfer and, exchange of best practice between research institutions and leading partners.

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA), part of Horizon Europe, are the European Union’s flagship funding programme for doctoral education and postdoctoral training of researchers. There are 5 types of MSCA targeting different objectives: 1) Doctoral Networks (DN): supporting programmes to train doctoral candidates in academic and non-academic organisations. DN aim to train creative, entrepreneurial, innovative and resilient doctoral candidates, able to face current and future challenges and to convert knowledge and ideas into products and services for economic and social benefit. DN will equip researchers with the right combination of research-related and transferable competences and provide them with enhanced career perspectives in both the academic and non-academic sectors through international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility combined with an innovation-oriented mind-set. 2) Postdoctoral Fellowships (PF): supporting career perspectives and excellence of postdoctoral researchers. The goal of PF is to enhance the creative and innovative potential of researchers holding a PhD, wishing to acquire new skills through advanced training, international, interdisciplinary and inter-sectoral mobility. PF are open to excellent researchers of any nationality, including researchers wishing to reintegrate in Europe, researchers who are displaced by conflict as well as researchers with high potential aiming for a career restart in research. The scheme also encourages researchers to work on research and innovation projects in the non-academic sector. 3) Staff Exchanges (SE): encouraging collaborations between organisations through staff exchanges. SE promote innovative international, inter-sectoral and interdisciplinary collaboration in research and innovation through exchanging staff and sharing knowledge and ideas at all stages of the innovation chain. 4) COFUND: co-funding of regional, national and international programmes. 5) MSCA and Citizens: bringing research and researchers closer to the public at large, through the European Researchers’ Night.

The European Research Council supports frontier research, cross disciplinary proposals and pioneering ideas in new and emerging fields which introduce unconventional and innovative approaches. The ERC's mission is to encourage the highest quality research in Europe through competitive funding and to support investigator-driven frontier research across all fields of research, on the basis of scientific excellence.

The second pillar of Horizon Europe includes a challenge-based approach that will bring together resources and knowledge across different fields, technologies and disciplines, including social sciences and the humanities. This will cover activities from research to market with a new focus on innovation-related activities. Funding will focus on the following clusters: “Health”, “Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society”, “Civil Security for Society”, “Digital, Industry & Space”, “Climate, Energy & Mobility”, “Food, Bioeconomy, Natural Resources, Agriculture & Environment”.

Within the clusters of pillar II, Horizon Europe incorporates missions to increase the effectiveness of funding by pursuing clearly defined targets with a concrete impact on citizen’s daily lives. The aim is to achieve bold, inspirational and measurable goals within a set timeframe. The following 5 mission areas have been identified, each with a dedicated mission board and assembly: • Adaptation to climate change including societal transformation • Cancer • Climate-neutral and smart cities • Healthy oceans, seas, coastal and inland waters • Soil health and food Each mission will operate as a portfolio of actions – such as research projects, policy measures or even legislative initiatives - to achieve a measurable goal that could not be achieved through individual actions. EU missions will contribute to the goals of the European Green Deal, Europe’s Beating Cancer Plan as well as the Sustainable Development Goals.

The Human Brain Project (HBP) is one of the three FET (Future and Emerging Technology) Flagship projects. Started in 2013, it is one of the largest research projects in the world . More than 500 scientists and engineers at over than 140 universities, teaching hospitals, and research centres across Europe come together to address one of the most challenging research targets – the human brain. To tame brain complexity, the project is building a research infrastructure to help advance neuroscience, medicine, computing and brain-inspired technologies - EBRAINS. The HBP is developing EBRAINS to create lasting research platforms that benefit the wider community. The HBP provides a framework where teams of researchers and technologists work together to scale up ambitious ideas from the lab, explore the different aspects of brain organisation, and understand the mechanisms behind cognition, learning, or plasticity. Scientists in the HBP conduct targeted experimental studies and develop theories and models to shed light on the human connectome, addressing mechanisms that underlie information processing, from the molecule to cellular signaling and large-scale networks. The project teams transfer the acquired knowledge to make an impact in health and innovation: Insights from basic research are translated into medical applications, to prepare the ground for new diagnoses and therapies. Discoveries about learning and brain plasticity mechanisms are used to inspire technologic progress, e.g., in artificial intelligence. In addition, the project studies the ethical and societal implications of the advancement of neuroscience and related fields. In its final phase (April 2020 – March 2023) the HBP’s focus is to advance three core scientific areas – brain networks, their role in consciousness, and artificial neural nets – while further expanding EBRAINS. Currently transitioning into a sustainable infrastructure, EBRAINS will remain available to the scientific community, as a lasting contribution of the HBP to global scientific progress. The HBP’s Core Project is organised in six cross-disciplinary, highly integrated science and infrastructure Work Packages (WPs), and three Work Packages of overarching activities: WP1: The human multiscale brain connectome and its variability – from synapses to large-scale networks and function WP2: Networks underlying brain cognition and consciousness WP3: Adaptive networks for cognitive architectures: from advanced learning to neurorobotics and neuromorphic applications WP4: EBRAINS Data Services WP5: EBRAINS Modelling Services WP6: EBRAINS Computing Services WP7: Management and Coordination WP8: Communication, Outreach and Exploitation WP9: Responsible Research and Innovation Read detailed Work Package descriptions here.

The Next Generation Internet (NGI) is a European Commission initiative that aims to shape the development and evolution of the Internet into an Internet of Humans. An Internet that responds to people’s fundamental needs, including trust, security, and inclusion, while reflecting the values and the norms all citizens enjoy in Europe. The NGI comprises an ambitious research and innovation programme with an initial EC investment of more than €250m between 2018 and 2020 and is part of the upcoming Horizon Europe Programme (2021-2027). The ambition of the NGI is to ensure that the development and progressive adoption of advanced technologies, concepts and methodologies contributes to make the future Internet more human-centric, particularly in times of crisis. To achieve its ambition, NGI funds the best Internet researchers and innovators to address technological opportunities arising from collaboration and advances in research fields ranging from network infrastructures to platforms, and from application domains to social innovation. Focus is on advanced technologies including privacy and trust, search and discovery, decentralised architectures, blockchain, Internet of Things, social media, interactive technologies, as well as technologies supporting multilingualism and accessibility. To ensure durable impact NGI also provides mentoring to help bring research and innovation outcomes to the market. The NGI community envisions the information age as an era that should enable human potential, mobility and creativity at the largest possible scale – while dealing responsibly with our natural resources as part of the European Green Deal. The legendary robustness of the Internet must become reality. Connected devices will enhance our homes, factories, offices, hospitals and vehicles. The Next Generation Internet must be both highly adaptive and unrelentingly resilient with a solid technical foundation. If parts of the network were to go down by natural disaster or cyber-attack, the effects should be close to zero. The enduring success of the Internet lies in permission-free innovation, openness and interoperability. The Next Generation Internet fosters diversity and decentralisation and grows the potential for a sustainably open environment for our cultures and economies, celebrating our values, promoting creativity and respecting the environment.

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) are the primary agency of the US government responsible for biomedical and public health research. They award NIH grants through 24 grant-awarding institutes and centers. NIH offers funding for many types of grants, contracts, and even programs that help repay loans for researchers. The NIH supports $31 billion in research annually, given to more than 300,000 researchers at more than 2,500 institutions for research into a variety of conditions.[2] Each institute of the NIH has separate appropriations from Congress determined on an annual basis. Percentages of grant applications funded vary by institute, from 8% (National Institute of Nursing Research) to 29.6% (National Institute of General Medical Sciences), with an overall average of 18%. Funding percentages have dropped from over 30% in the early 2000s, mainly due to an increase in applications, rather than a decrease in funds available. In 1998, 24,100 applications were received, and 7,500 were funded with a total of $1.9 billion. By 2005, the number of applications had grown to 43,000, of which 9,600 were funded with a total of $3.4 billion. In 2015, 52,000 applications were submitted and 9,500 were funded with $4.3 billion.[3] Grants are assessed based on their significance, innovation, and approach. The major grant awards of the NIH are divided into Research Grants (R series), Career Development Awards (K series), Research Training and Fellowships (T & F series), Program Project/Center Grants (P series), and miscellaneous programs. There are various requirements for grants. Some grants are specified for "new investigators", which is defined as someone who has not received a prior NIH grant other than a career award or specific small grants (R15, R21, R56, etc.). An "early stage investigator" is someone who has received their PhD or MD or has finished residency within the past 10 years.
