NEURON Joint Call 2011: "European Research Projects on Cerebrovascular Diseases "

Ten transnational research consortia are funded under the umbrella of the NEURON JTC2011 “Cerebrovascular Diseases”. In total, 42 research groups from nine European countries, Canada and Israel collaborate in these projects. The total funding volume of the call adds up to 9.7 million €.
Research projects focus on the most important cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke, small vessel disease, or vascular cognitive impairment.

Projects and collaboration partners are shown below. Please click on “summary” to download a brief project overview. See also our related newsletter on the JTC2011.
