The Carnot Network for Infectious Diseases lauches a call for expression of interest on antimicrobial resistance.
Do you have a project, an expertise or a need for skills to carry out research in the areas of combating antimicrobial resistance (therapeutics, vaccines or diagnostics) with a “One Health” approach and you are faced with scientific and/or technological obstacles that you cannot solve alone?
This call for expression of interest is for you!
The projects developed in response to this call receive funding ranging between 50,000€-100,000€ from their respective Carnot institute.
Deadline : 15 December 2023
I-Contexte
Six Carnot institutes came together in 2022 to form the Carnot Network on Infectious Diseases for research on the themes : infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance to train. The network is led by Carnot Pasteur Microbes et Santé and supports a key research subject in the France plan 2030.
II-Objectives
The purpose of this call for expressions of interest is to :
• identify possible synergies, scientific and technological obstacles to overcome
• validate the strategic axes and prioritize those which would be a source of strong interaction and complementarities between the institutes
• identify researchers within the scope of the Carnot network for infectious diseases interested in the targeted themes
• organize events that meet your needs
• consider the construction and financing of inter-Carnot resourcing actions
• establish, around these themes, working groups, in charge of setting up research projects bringing together researchers from the different institutes of the Carnot network for Infectious Diseases
• accelerate innovation in the field of diagnostic, therapeutic and preventive tools for antibiotic resistance by using new methodologies and new tools (for example artificial intelligence)
III-Target themes
1 Therapeutic innovation
a- Development of new preventive and curative strategies with a holistic approach with priority to phage therapy
b- Optimization of the use of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine
2 Diagnostic innovation
a- Resistance detection
b- Development of routine Phage sensitivity and activity tests
3 Innovation prevention and control
a- Study of the dynamics and control of the emergence, transmission and dissemination of resistance
b- Study of the human and financial impacts of antibiotic resistance
4 Innovation in the field of antibiotic resistance and the environment
a- Study of the dynamics and control of the emergence, transmission and dissemination of resistance in the environment
b- Detection and reduction of antimicrobial residues in the environment in a One Health approach
IV-Financing Terms
Pojects will be supported by all the Carnot institutes involved. Each Carnot will allocate an overall funding between 50,000€ and 100,000€ and will support their reserach entity of the selected project. This will be within the framework of an Inter Carnot collaborative project.
