Combining hospital interventional approaches to improve patient outcomes and increase hospital efficiency

Code: 25982 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-JU-IHI-2022-03-03 | Programme name: 23667 | Start submission calls: 13/12/2022 | End submission calls: 15/03/2023

Patients admitted to hospital to undergo elective or non-elective procedures typically require recovery and rehabilitation to get back to normal life. New treatment approaches such as minimally invasive surgical approaches, locoregional interventions, novel imaging and diagnostic techniques, clinical decision support systems, and robotics have the potential to reduce complications, facilitate faster recovery, and help increase hospital efficiencies.
Projects funded under this topic should address this challenge by showcasing how existing hospital interventions, treatment approaches and technologies can be optimally combined to improve patient outcomes, enhance patient pathways, generate efficiency gains, reduce hospital staffing challenges, help to lower costs, and decrease societal burden.

Patient-generated evidence to improve outcomes, support decision making, and accelerate innovation

Code: 25980 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-JU-IHI-2022-03-02 | Programme name: 23667 | Start submission calls: 13/12/2022 | End submission calls: 15/03/2023

The amount of health data generated by citizens themselves is rapidly increasing. Such data includes patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), patient preference information (PPI), and patient-reported experience measures (PREMs), as well as other digital health data/digital biomarkers. These data are often fragmented among multiple providers, so that neither the citizen, nor the healthcare ecosystem have a comprehensive overview, and therefore it is very challenging to fully use these data to provide reliable evidence for decision-makers, and to improve health outcomes.

Code: 25978 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-JU-IHI-2022-03-04 | Programme name: 23667 | Start submission calls: 13/12/2022 | End submission calls: 15/03/2023

The overall aim of this topic is to optimise and streamline the future development of ATMPs and other related innovative therapeutic modalities for rare diseases by strengthening the ecosystem that facilitates the transition of early pre-clinical proof-of-concept research to clinical development. This topic focuses on the scientific, technological and regulatory barriers that are limiting translational research into rapid and cost-effective development of ATMPs and other related innovative therapeutic modalities for rare diseases.

Screening platform and biomarkers for prediction and prevention of diseases of unmet public health need

Code: 25976 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-JU-IHI-2022-03-01 | Programme name: 23667 | Start submission calls: 13/12/2022 | End submission calls: 15/03/2023

As the population of the European Union ages, the rising burden of disease is a major challenge to the sustainability and resilience of healthcare systems. The identification of individuals at risk of developing an illness so that they can receive an appropriate treatment before the disease develops is an important factor to address this problem.
Projects funded under this topic should address this challenge by developing an open platform for screening individuals with the aim of identifying people at risk of disease.

Developing a better understanding of information suppression by state authorities as an example of foreign information manipulation and interference

Code: 25971 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL2-2023-DEMOCRACY-01-02 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Societies (Cluster 2)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 14/12/2022 | End submission calls: 14/03/2023

Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI) goes beyond the much-used concept of “disinformation”, which focusses on the active promotion of messages and pushing out of false/misleading content. FIMI also includes other aspects of how the information environment and civic discourse can be manipulated, notably through the suppression of independent and critical voices. It aims to eliminate – or suppress – from the public sphere certain voices or messages.
This should focus on different aspects, ranging from the individual to the society, to the media, academia, as well as pressure on private industry.

Integrated care solutions leading to better quality, person-centred long-term care and overcoming territorial inequalities in their provision

Code: 25963 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL2-2023-TRANSFORMATIONS-01-08 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Societies (Cluster 2)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 14/12/2022 | End submission calls: 14/03/2023

The quality of long-term care (LTC) is affected by a number of factors, including funding, workforce, organisation, and technology. Concerning organisation, new models of integrated care have started to emerge, which aim to structure care services around personal needs to improve user satisfaction, psychological health, and well-being.

Remote working arrangements and their economic, social and spatial effects

Code: 25961 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL2-2023-TRANSFORMATIONS-01-01 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Societies (Cluster 2)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 14/12/2022 | End submission calls: 14/03/2023

Remote working arrangements have considerably increased giving a new perspective to a long ongoing debate on a solution which before was primarily an opportunity to improve employees’ work-life balance.
Research should investigate how remote working arrangements can affect different spaces, focusing on the urban and rural divide and its impacts on the local communities, including on ethical and social aspects, employment, as well as on administration and infrastructures.

Towards sustainable economic policy paradigms

Code: 25956 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL2-2023-TRANSFORMATIONS-01-02 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Societies (Cluster 2)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 14/12/2022 | End submission calls: 14/03/2023

Tackling inequalities in the green and digital transitions

Code: 25954 | Identifier Code: HORIZON-CL2-2023-TRANSFORMATIONS-01-10 | Programme name: 2939 | Sub-program: Culture, Creativity & Inclusive Societies (Cluster 2)(2021-2027) | Start submission calls: 14/12/2022 | End submission calls: 14/03/2023

The next decades will be defined by the twin green and digital transitions. To achieve this, policymakers need to both recognise existing inequalities and vulnerabilities and take duly into account the possible distributional impacts of new/revised policies (e.g. the Green Deal and its Fit for 55 Package), against (updated) baseline scenarios.
