COVID-19 Focus Funding: Exploiting Spatial Data as a Basis for Decision-making as Part of Pandemic Control
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
Funding will be provided for the development and demonstration of innovative and creative approaches to data evaluation for a detailed spatio-temporal analysis of infection events. The aim should be, for example, to establish the basis for early detection of outbreaks (also on a local scale) or evaluate prevention and containment measures. Projects can either use innovative approaches to analyse pandemic events to date or set out to develop monitoring systems. In both cases, the use of various official, commercial or freely accessible data sources is conceivable, including mobile phone data, social media data, data from health authorities, behavioural and survey data etc.
COVID-19 Focus Funding: Education and Corona – The Impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic on Educational Processes in the Life Course
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
The focus of the call is to conduct a secondary analytical investigation of educational processes in the life course and how these educational processes are organised. The aim is to analyse pandemic-related influences on education and look at the implications in terms of future developments (e.g. social inequality).
COVID-19 Focus Funding: Aerosol Particles and their Distribution
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
Funding under this call is available for projects dedicated to answering open and pressing questions on the formation of aerosol particles during breathing, speaking, coughing, sneezing, as well as their evaporation kinetics and spreading dynamics (turbulent mixing) in rooms. Furthermore, the call intends to address the efficient removal of aerosol particles from indoor air, the infectiosity of virus-transmitting aerosols and the inactivation of viruses in aerosols via multiphysics approaches (radiation, charging, temperature, etc.) as well as the transport and deposition of aerosol particles in the airways.
COVID-19 Focus Funding: SARS-CoV-2 Sequencing Projects
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
In this call, the DFG is inviting proposals for SARS-CoV-2 sequencing projects. Funding under this call is available for projects in the context of SARS-CoV-2 infection whose objectives can only be achieved with the use of sequencing technology. These virus and host-specific sequencings are intended to contribute towards a better understanding of infectiousness and the spread of the infec-tion process as well as the genetic determinants of the immune response and host susceptibility, taking defined clinical patterns and vulnerable groups into consideration.
The focus is on quickly generating (sequencing) data, which are made publicly available.
COVID-19 Focus Funding: Measures to Prevent Infection in Social Settings and Population Groups
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
In this call under COVID-19 Focus Funding, the DFG is inviting proposals on measures to prevent infection in social settings and population groups. In the absence of widespread vaccination or effective medicines against COVID-19, protection against infection currently relies on implementing measures to change people’s behaviour and on changes to social norms. The acceptance, feasibility, implementation as well as the effectiveness of the measures vary among social settings and different group of populations. The impact of these barriers against becoming infected in social settings is unclear.
COVID-19 Focus Funding: Immunity, Host Susceptibility and Pathomechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 Infection
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
The purpose of this call is to address urgent, unresolved questions on immune response, host susceptibility and the infection mechanisms and pathomechanisms of SARS-CoV-2. Projects must be hypothesis driven and evidence based. To ensure that projects can get underway quickly, it must be clear in the proposal that the necessary methodological prerequisites are in place and any model systems or patient samples required are available at the start of the project. It must also be clear from the proposal how the newly acquired knowledge will contribute to a better understanding of the infection process and thus the concrete management of the current crisis. Applicants should also explain how the research results can lead to further research projects.
COVID-19 Focus Funding: Impacts of the Coronavirus Pandemic in the Global South: Health Systems and Society
With its COVID-19 Focus Funding, the German Research Foundation (DFG) has developed a new funding opportunity designed to enable scientists to address especially urgent research questions requiring rapid answers. The projects can be used as preparation for subsequent larger-scale projects.
With this subject the DFG is highlighting the countries and regions which have been particularly affected by the impacts of the pandemic due to major social dis-parities, a relatively weak economy, a high degree of informality, a lack of social security and overbur-dened health systems.
