Upcoming Opportunities for European Grant Applications
A number of opportunities are coming soon for European grant applications (e.g., ERA4Health calls such as Trials4Health 2026 and potentially IHI Call 12). These calls are designed to foster international collaboration and strengthen clinical and public health research across multiple countries and disciplines.
As the Irish National Hub of conect4children-Stichting (c4c-S), In4kids can help you build strong consortia and craft competitive grant applications. We offer the following resources to support sites and researchers:
- Expert Advice – Access our expert panels for guidance on trial design and methodological considerations.
- Sites – Connect with high-quality, research-ready sites within the c4c-S network.
- Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) – Facilitate meaningful engagement of patients and families in study design and implementation.
- Application Preparation – Join discussions on proposal development for researchers and new consortia.
Current priority calls for conect4children include:
- Multi-country Investigator-Initiated Clinical Trials in Cardiovascular, Autoimmune, and Metabolic Diseases (Trials4Health): https://era4health.eu/calls/pre_trials4health.php
- Boosting Innovation for a Competitive European Health Ecosystem (IHI Call 12): https://www.ihi.europa.eu/sites/default/files/uploads/Documents/Calls/FutureTopics/Call_12_DraftText_Oct2025.pdf
