PREVENTROP New approach to treatment of the blinding disease Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)

Coordinator: GOETEBORGS UNIVERSITET (SE)

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €6.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2012-10-01 to 2018-09-30.
