**Japan’s Agency for Medical Research and Development (AMED) administers a Catalyst Award competition that is open only to current and previous AMED-funded grantees. As such, AMED does not have a public-facing application page and will conduct its processes internally from March to May.

***Applicants to EIT Health’s Bridgehead and Innostars programmes MUST indicate that they wish to be considered for a Catalyst Award. Prospective applicants are encouraged to review the description and eligibility criteria for each programme to determine for which they are best suited.
