New NWO call Enabling analytical tools for new chemical and other innovations (€ 1,000,000)

NWO invites applications for the new call Enabling analytical tools for new chemical (and other) innovations within the programme PTA-COAST3 (Comprehensive Analytical Science and Technology). Deadline for submitting proposals is July 8, 2014. The TA-COAST call aims for fundamental breakthroughs in analytical methodology, thus providing enabling tools for future R&D in the Top Sector Chemistry/TKI New Chemical Innovations, and be relevant for at least one additional Top Sector.

Scientists from Dutch knowledge institutes can submit an application on behalf of at least two private partners and two knowledge institutes. Funding is up to € 1,000,000. NWO's contribution to a project is maximal € 700,000. Private contributions in excess of € 300,000 are welcome, but shall not be eligible for matching by NWO funding.

The total call budget is € 3 million (including € 900,000 cash plus in-kind contributions from private project partners). It is not excluded that additional budget of the TKI/Fund New Chemical Innovations becomes available if projects are of high quality.

The PTA-COAST3 programme calls for full proposals within one or more of the following programme themes:
• Orthogonal analysis systems: Projects aim to hyphenate chemical, physical and/or biological measurement systems in order to enable the analysis of highly complex mixtures;
• Analysing intact systems and surfaces: Projects address the imaging of surfaces, living or working systems, in their undisturbed natural or well-controlled functional environment;
• Bringing the lab to the sample: Projects aim at performing analytical measurements reliably and efficiently outside the laboratory environment.
