How the action works
Map the landscape
A coherent and responsible European pathway for advanced AI in healthcare.
Who is it for?
AI and health research communities; Healthcare professionals, patients and regulators; European infrastructures, industry and public authorities. The strongest consortia will connect these capabilities around a clearly defined need rather than assemble partners only to satisfy formal eligibility.
What does the call support?
Create a shared research and innovation agenda for AGI in healthcare.
Map scientific, clinical, ethical, regulatory and infrastructure challenges.
Connect communities and coordinate responsible European development.
What are the key requirements?
- A genuinely multidisciplinary health-and-AI coordination approach
- Strong attention to trustworthiness, safety, ethics and human oversight
- Meaningful involvement of healthcare stakeholders and end users
- Action type: Coordination and Support Action (CSA).
A competitive proposal must connect the topic’s expected outcomes to a focused intervention logic, credible partners, measurable results and a convincing route to uptake. Scope, eligibility and all special conditions should be checked against the official topic text before consortium commitments are made.
Timeline and next steps
The topic is scheduled to open on 2 June 2027 and the deadline is 22 September 2027. Prospective applicants should use the preparation period to confirm fit, shape the core concept, identify the capabilities required and build the work plan around the expected outcomes.
EXELIXIS can support call interpretation, concept positioning, consortium architecture, proposal development, impact pathways and coordination of partner contributions.
