ERC funds the best researchers from around the world to investigate topics of their own choosing at the frontier of knowledge. Projects supported by ERC should have the potential to substantially transform their scientific area. Scientists with a PhD older than 2 years and willing to work for part of their time at a host institution in the EU or countries associated with the Horizon Europe programme (e.g. Israel, Norway, United Kingdom, Switzerland) can apply. There are no restrictions on the research topic, researcher nationality, current affiliation or age as ERC would like to attract the best researchers to come to Europe for projects of up to 5 years with a funding level between 1.5 and 3.5 million EUR (depending on the call).
In the first part of this session we will explain how the ERC application and evaluation process works. In addition, two scientists who have successfully applied to ERC will share their experiences of the preparation and evaluation phase. Tips and tricks on how to run an ERC grant will be provided and participants will have the possibility to ask questions.
