Programme overview

Horizon Europe’s Brain Health-partnership is launching to call for proposals in 2026. The purpose of the calls is to identify the factors that influence brain health throughout life, from prenatal stages to advanced age, as well as methods to monitor them, influence them, or both. In this frame, the EP BrainHealth launches 2 calls, one in the field of neurological, mental and sensory disorders (EP BrainHealth Call 1) and one in the field of neurodegenerative disorders (EP BrainHealth Call 2). Innovation Fund Denmark offers co-funding to Danish participants in projects successful in this call.

The call targets Danish universities, companies, industry organisations, local/regional governments, research organisations and NGOs. All Danish organisations directly involved in activities in the projects are eligible as applicants to the innovation Fund Denmark.
