Temat konkursu:

Prevention of Vascular Cognitive Impairment through Early Detection of Cardiovascular Diseases.

Zakres konkursu:

Under the umbrella of ERA-CVD, the fifth joint transnational call 2020 (JTC2020) is now launched to promote transnational research projects focusing on “Prevention of Vascular Cognitive Impairment through Early Detection of Cardiovascular Diseases”.

The ERA-CVD funding organizations are seeking multi-disciplinary and translational research proposals. The individual components of joint applications should be complementary and contain novel and ambitious ideas to answer key questions or lead to a step-wise change in understand-ing of CVDs. There should be a clear added value in funding the collaboration over individual projects by sharing of resources (e.g., models, databases, diagnostics, etc.), harmonisation of data, sharing of specific know-how and/or innovative technologies. The consortia should be based on complementarities and sharing of expertise, with a clear translational research approach.

It is known that CVD can cause cognitive decline and that risk factors for CVD such as (but not limited to) age, gender, family history, smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, sleep deprivation, sedentary behaviour, and others are also associated with vascular cognitive impair-ment (VCI)2. VCI refers to the contribution of vascular pathology to any severity of cognitive im-pairment, ranging from subjective cognitive decline and mild cognitive impairment to dementia. The social, human and economic burden associated with the incidence of CVD and associated cognitive decline is high and increasing. Based on the current evidence, early CVD interventions are needed in order to prevent VCI.
 

The call topic is based on mutual agreement between the ERA-CVD partners. The aim of the call is to enable scientists from different countries to come together and build effective collaborations on the early detection of CVD for the prevention of VCI.
