EU/FWO – Transcan-4 – European network on Translational Cancer Research with FWO funding

The Transcan-4 – European network on Translational Cancer Research co-funded call has been launched: “Translational Research on Cancer Metabolism: Multidisciplinary Approaches for Diagnosis and Treatment”

This first call focuses on translational research on cancer metabolism, more specifically on multidisciplinary approaches for diagnosis and treatment, to improve both diagnosis and treatment. The call aims to bring together researchers and clinicians to foster innovative collaborations and support high-quality projects with strong translational potential.

Applicants for FWO funding must submit an administrative application via the FWO e-loket:

  • For fundamental research projects (FO): application type: ‘Research projects – European programme fundamental research’;
  • For strategic basis research projects (SBO): application type: ‘Research projects – European programme strategic basic research’.

Researchers are strongly advised to contact the FWO before submission regarding the eligibility criteria. This to avoid the ineligibility of a researcher individually, and the project consortium as a whole.

Deadline: 21 July 2026 (pre-submission); 13 January 2027 (final submission)
