Systems Biology research funding in the Netherlands

An overview of grants shows that Dutch funding organisations subsidised research in the field of systems biology with a total amount of approximately € 76M, of which ca € 55M was granted for research projects taking place in the period 2007-2014.
The main funding organisations are the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO), the Netherlands Genomics Initiative (NGI), the Netherlands Organisation for Health Research and Development (ZonMW), and the Ministry of Education (OCW).

Transnational funding through the European Commission (FP7-Health, etc.), SysMO, ERASysBio, and other programmes was also available. Dutch systems biologists have been rather successful in obtaining some of these highly competitive, collaborative grants. A total of € 34M was granted through the FP7-Health programme for projects on the synapse (synsys, VU), the cilium (syscilia, Radboud), and networks in the brain (gencodys, Radboud).
