Welcome to the platform for submitting and evaluating applications for the Bioproductions call for international mobility (B-BEST)
PEPR B-BEST, co-piloted by INRAE and IFPEN, aims to meet the challenges linked to understanding and converting biomass into biobased products for a sustainable transition to the bioeconomy and circular economy. It supports fundamental research, but also research that is characterised by a low level of technological maturity, with the aim of developing innovations that will encourage the development of an efficient, relevant, responsible and competitive French industrial base in the fields of bio-based products and sustainable fuels.
One aspect of the research programme aims to support incoming/outgoing mobility projects for scientists working on these themes through the launch of a specific call for projects. It will support international exchanges, with a view to sharing data, tools, methods, scientific orientations or acquiring scientific and technical skills related to one of the 5 scientific axes of the PEPR B-BEST and possibly to one of the projects funded by the PEPR. This call will be launched annually.
Calendar
5 scientific axes
Axis 1
Characterising the chemical and physical structure of biomass
Axis 2
Understanding and controlling biological systems
Axis 3
Defining and developing new biomass transformation schemes
Axis 4
Developing cross-functional digital methodologies and tools
Axis 5
Understanding the processes of transition to the bioeconomy and their governance - Humanities and Social Sciences
B-BEST programme
Co-directed by INRAE and IFPEN, this 7-year programme started in 2022 and has a budget of €65 million.
A more sober society must be encouraged in order to achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, and the use of fossil carbon must be banned as far as possible. The transition from a petrochemical-based economy to bio-based products and services is seen as a major part of this global transition, and many challenges need to be met in order to transfer the results of scientific research in this field to the socio-economic world. It is also a real paradigm shift that will only be operational if the solutions it provides are more competitive in every respect: in terms of cost, price, attributes and functionalities. In this context, the PEPR B-BEST aims to support fundamental research into bio-based products and services.
PEPR (Priority Research Projects and Equipment) are funded as part of the France 2030 investment plan. A PEPR is a nationwide programme designed to structure, consolidate and raise the international profile of the scientific community working in an area considered to be a national or European priority.
