BACKGROUND
Under the umbrella of E-Rare-2 (ERA-Net for research programmes on rare diseases), ten
funding organisations have agreed to fund the third E-Rare joint transnational call (JTC 2011)
for collaborative research projects on rare diseases. The E-Rare funding organisations
particularly wish to promote interdisciplinary collaboration and to encourage translational
research proposals.
REGISTRATION
Research consortia who intend to submit a transnational project proposal should register at
the
electronic
proposal
system
as
soon
as
possible
(http://www.ptit.de/ptoutline/application/erare11). The system will be opened in the second week of January
2011 latest. To register, please fill in the data sheet of the system. The same data sheet can
later be used for the final electronic proposal submission.
PROPOSAL SUBMISSION
There will be a two-stage submission procedure for joint applications: pre-proposals
and full proposals. In both cases, one joint proposal document (in English) shall be
prepared by the partners of a joint transnational proposal, and must be submitted to the Joint
Call Secretariat (JCS) by one spokesperson, the coordinator.
Electronic pre-proposal submission is mandatory. To apply, please use the pre-proposal
template provided on the E-Rare web page (www.e-rare.eu). Joint pre-proposals (in English)
must be received by the JCS in an electronic version no later than January 31, 2011 at 09
p.m. French time (Central European Time).
Electronic full proposals submission is mandatory. Please note that joint full proposals will
be only accepted from those applicants explicitly invited by the JCS to submit them. Full
proposals (in English) must be received by the JCS in an electronic version no later than 16
May 2011 at 09 p.m. French time (Central European Summer Time).
Please note that project coordinators will be provided with the opportunity of studying the
assessments of external reviewers and commenting on their evaluations of full proposals (for
details see point 5.3.3. Rebuttal stage in the “Call text”). The applicants will have up to one
week (between first and second week of July) for this optional response to the
reviewers’ comments.
Please note that a signed paper version of your proposal will not be solicited. However, both
the electronic pre-proposals and full proposals need to be signed (electronic signature or a
scan of the paper containing the signature will be accepted)
Please take into account that the online data entry may be overloaded on the days of the
deadlines. It is therefore recommended to transfer all obligatory data in good time.

PRE-PROPOSAL STRUCTURE
One joint pre-proposal document (in English) shall be prepared by the partners of a joint
transnational proposal, and must be submitted to the JCS by one spokesperson, the
coordinator. Only transnational projects will be funded (please see consortium properties
described in the “Call text”)
Please note that only the pre-proposal templates provided on the E-Rare web page
(www.e-rare.eu) will be accepted. The pre-proposal document must respect the format (DINA4, Arial 11, single-spaced) and the length indicated. Pre-proposals exceeding these
limitations will be rejected.

as its representative
3. Names and full affiliations of the principal investigators participating in the joint
transnational project

5. Keywords (between three and seven keywords representing the scientific content)
6. Summary of the project (once converted into Pdf document: max. 5 pages DIN-A4,
Arial 11, single-spaced, and margins of 2.5). The summary must contain:
a. Background and present state of the art in the research field
b. Description of the working program including the objectives, the rationale and
the methodology, highlighting the novelty, originality and feasibility of the
project
c. Potential health impact and exploitation/dissemination of expected project
results
d. Added value of the proposed transnational collaboration
In addition, an appendix with references (one page maximum) and with diagrams,
figures, etc. (one page maximum) may be provided.
7. Brief CV for each principal investigator including a description of the main domain of
research and a list of the 5 most relevant publications within the last five years
regarding the proposal (once converted into Pdf document: max. 1 page DIN-A4,
Arial 11, single-spaced, margins of 2.5 per principal investigator and project
coordinator).
8. Budget plan of the project
FULL PROPOSAL STRUCTURE
The information given in the pre-proposal is binding. Thus, any fundamental changes
between the pre- and full proposals, e.g. composition of the consortia, objectives of the
project, must be communicated to the JCS with detailed justification and will only be allowed
by the Call Steering Committee (CSC) under exceptional circumstances.
Please note that only the full-proposal templates provided on the E-Rare web page
(www.e-rare.eu) will be accepted. The proposal document must respect the format and the

PROJECT START AND CONSORTIUM AGREEMENT
Consortium members of projects selected for funding must fix a common project start date,
which would be the reference date for yearly and final reports and extensions. This common
project start date must appear in the Consortium Agreement.
It will be the responsibility of the research consortium coordinators to draw up a Consortium
Agreement (CA) suitable to their own group in order to manage the delivery of the project
activities, finances, intellectual right properties (IPR) and to avoid disputes which might be
detrimental to the completion of the project.
The research consortium is strongly encouraged to sign this CA before the official project
start date, and in any case the CA has to be signed no later than six months after the official
project start date.

capability and is able to work together in a synergistic manner.
The following subjects (as a minimum) should be addressed by the CA:
