The UAB was selected to carry out one of the 30 projects awarded funding by the\u00a0Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions\u00a0\u2013 COFUND of the Horizon Europe programme, with a budget of almost five million euros. The project, which allows covering the salary of up to 24 pre-doctoral positions, includes the involvement of up to seven institutes\u00a0from the UAB-CIE Sphere and the CORE Mental Health Network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The COFUND programme uses a co-funding mechanism to boost regional, national and international programmes and thus foster training, mobility and development of researchers and their professional career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The UAB project now receiving funding from the programme is entitled TOUCH: Towards the next generation of excellent young doctoral researchers on mental health by developing an intersectoral & transdisciplinary approach<\/strong>. With a total budget of \u20ac4,838,400, it will be able to bring on board 24 PhD students enrolled in a strategic UAB area: mental health and well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Under a highly multidisciplinary and cross-curricular approach, TOUCH will include the participation of several UAB departments and seven institutes belonging to the UAB-CIE Sphere (Centre for Demographic Studies, Centre for Mathematical Research, Computer Vision Centre, Health and Ageing Foundation, Parc Taul\u00ed Institute for Research and Innovation, Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau Research Institute, and the Vall d\u2019Hebron Research Institute), as well as the CORE Mental Health Research Network<\/a> and other institutions providing both regional and international support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Of the 24 pre-doctoral places, 12 will go to UAB researchers and 12 will be covered by students from the different institutes making up the consortium.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The COFUND programme uses a co-funding mechanism to boost regional, national and international programmes and thus foster training, mobility and development of researchers and their professional career.
