Goals
International Research Projects (IRPs) or Projets de Recherche Internationaux (PRI) are thematically and geographically open tools.
- The IRPs aim to support a promising existing or emerging partnership by providing the means to scientific projects of excellence and high impact potential, between 2 countries or more, to establish their collaboration in the long term.
- The creation of an IRP must demonstrate complementarity between the teams and reciprocal added value for the partners involved.
- The ultimate goal is to consolidate a partnership established between an Inserm team and a foreign team (or, depending on scientific relevance, several foreign teams).
Details
- There is no geographic restriction but a special attention will be paid to projects with low-income or middle-income countries (LMICs).
- The duration of these joint research projects between an Inserm research team and one or more foreign research teams is 5 years.
- The selected IRPs will be granted - beyond the resources directly mobilized by the participating laboratories - funding of up to:
- €60,000 for IRPs in Europe;
- €75,000 for IRPs outside of Europe.
