Advancing Knowledge on the Impacts of Micro- and Nanoplastics on Human Health

This funding call aims to advance scientific knowledge on the health impacts of micro- and nanoplastics (MNPs). Projects under this topic should address knowledge gaps, provide evidence-based recommendations, and support policy-making to mitigate exposure to MNPs. Key objectives include studying the mechanisms of MNP toxicity, developing standardised methodologies for their detection and quantification, and exploring their interactions with other pollutants. The call emphasizes harmonisation across studies, development of human biomonitoring and risk assessment methods, and the engagement of social sciences to enhance societal impact. Proposals are expected to include networking activities and allocate resources for common dissemination and data-sharing strategies.

Opening: 22 May 2025

Deadline(s): 18 Sep 2025 (First Stage), 16 Apr 2026 (Second Stage)
