The DeCODe Project for Paediatric & Orphan Device developers project is co-funded by the European Commission and consists of recognised clinicians, researchers, industry experts, and regulatory authorities. The project aims to create impact by delivering high quality, relevant scientific output, while providing expert support for developers to create new medical device solutions. On 27 January 2025, DeCODe has launched a call for support for paediatric and orphan device developers. Successful applicants will benefit from the support of two dedicated innovation coaches to help achieve their development goals. Support will be available to a wide range of developers, including but not limited to academics and individual researchers, startups and industrial players, organizations from diverse settings, and patient-led developers, for both new device development and the adaptation of existing products for the orphan and paediatric populations. Deadline for application submission is 31 March 2025.
