Pilot Projects 2026

Associate members:

Congratulations to our members recipients of the pilot projects 2026-2027 competition.

This program serves to initiate and promote an innovative and not funded aspect of the scientific research from the QPRN members. Researchers will be able to test the feasibility of an innovative concept by obtaining preliminary data that will allow the preparation of a grant application to one of the recognized funding agencies. The competition received 22 project proposals, four of which were funded (a success rate of 23%).
