ERA-NET NEURON project is one of the sub-areas of Ufuk 2020 under the scope of "Health, Demographic Change and Welfare" and is a joint project of TUBITAK. The main objective of the ERA-NET NEURON project is to help closely and sustainably link and harmonize national and regional research programs in the fields of neuroscience, neurology and psychiatry in partner countries.

Call themes:
-Fundamental research addressing the pathogenesis and etiology of sensory disorders. This may include the development of innovative or shared resources and technologies. The relevance of the research to sensory systems disorders must be clearly described. Preclinical studies may be included. Any animal or cell models should already be established and validated.

-Clinical research to develop novel strategies for prevention, diagnosis, patient stratification, therapy and/or rehabilitation for sensory disorders.

The NEURON funding organizations particularly wish to promote multi-disciplinary work and translational research proposals that combine basic and clinical approaches. In the context of the present call, the collaboration of clinicians with fundamental neuroscientists in the postulating consortia is highly encouraged, where appropriate, along with other disciplines with specific expertise.
