COVID-19: Launch of FNR fast-track Call
DESCRIPTION
The Luxembourgish research community has created a COVID-19 Task Force in order to coordinate response activities, including the FNR and the major Luxembourgish research institutions. As a part of the Task Force’s activities, the FNR is launching a rapid call to provide initial (co-)funding for supporting both short-term projects and starting phases of long-term projects that will address the current and future challenges of COVID-19.
Research submitted to this call is open to all research domains and disciplines and must be aligned with the WHO’s Coordinated Global Research Roadmap: 2019 Novel Coronavirus (March 2020 version). Of particular interest is also the development and use of Text and Data Mining techniques that can help to answer high-priority scientific questions related to COVID-19, such as those presented in the COVID-19 Open Research Dataset Challenge (CORD-19).
