The Department of Biotechnology (DBT) and Biotechnology Industry Research Assistance Council (BIRAC) have launched a call for AMRIT (Anti-Microbial Resistance and Infection Treatment) Team Grants to support innovative research in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and developing advanced infection treatments. This grant program encourages interdisciplinary teams of researchers, clinicians, and industry experts to collaborate on groundbreaking therapies, diagnostics, and vaccines to address AMR on a global scale.
The AMRIT Team Grants provide substantial funding and resources for high-potential projects that offer practical and scalable solutions in AMR and infectious disease research.
The AMRIT Team Grants are open to a wide range of applicants within the Indian research and biotech ecosystem, including:
Ideal applicants will have a promising prototype or validated research data that can advance to the next stage with additional funding and collaborative input.
The program seeks high-impact projects in key areas of infectious disease control and AMR, particularly those with applications in the Indian and global healthcare landscapes:
These focus areas aim to provide sustainable, accessible, and impactful solutions to current challenges in infectious disease treatment and resistance management.
The AMRIT Team Grants offer a unique opportunity for researchers, clinicians, and industry partners to collaborate and bring high-potential solutions to life. Through this program, BIRAC and DBT provide not only funding but also access to mentorship, network support, and a pathway to accelerate research from lab to market.
If you are passionate about infectious disease research and have a novel idea with the potential to combat AMR, the AMRIT Team Grants could be your springboard to real-world impact. Apply by December 15, 2024, and join the mission to revolutionize infectious disease treatment.
