Health research grant programs

Overview

In late July 2026, the College of Physicians of Alicante and the Navarro‑Tripodi Foundation announced a €100,000 call for medical research projects in the Spanish province of Alicante, with €75,000 earmarked for top proposals and a special €25,000 award for a commemorative project.

A few days later, in early August 2026, Fundación Mapfre launched its Ignácio H. de Larramendi Research Aid, offering up to €30,000 for health‑promotion studies and up to €15,000 for insurance and social‑security research. The programme, open to researchers in Brazil, Portugal, Spain and other countries, emphasizes topics such as obesity prevention, physical activity, micro‑insurance and the senior economy, with applications due in October.

Together, these announcements illustrate a broader wave of European and Latin American foundations establishing targeted funding streams to support health‑related research and social‑protection initiatives across the region.
