Deadline for initial submissions: 19 January 2021.
ICODA and Grand Challenges have launched the new pilot Grand Challenges ICODA COVID-19 Data Science grant programme that will focus on addressing major questions about how to reduce the harm of COVID-19 and future pandemics.
The initiative will be a pilot for the ongoing Grand Challenges that seek to develop global collaboration and innovative approaches to major health challenges. This pilot will lead to a larger Grand Challenges Data Science call in late 2021, which will be led by global Grand Challenges partners.
Focus, timeline and application process
The Grand Challenges ICODA COVID-19 Data Science grant programme will provide awards of up to US$100,000 for studies lasting for between 6-12 months, starting in mid-March 2021 onwards.
Proposals are welcomed from any country or region, with particular priority for those involving researchers and datasets from LMICs.
For specific details and criteria please consult the Request for Proposals.
