ERC Advanced Grants – Call for Proposals
The European Research Council (ERC) has published a call for proposals for Advanced Grants under the Horizon 2020 programme of the European Commission (EC). Funding will be up to € 2.5 million per grant for a period of 5 years. This call for proposals is designed to allow outstanding research leaders to pursue ground-breaking, high-risk projects in Europe. The scheme targets researchers who have already established themselves as top independent research leaders.
Research proposed for funding to the ERC should aim high, both with regards to the ambition of the envisaged scientific achievements as well as to the creativity and originality of proposed approaches. The sole evaluation criterion will be the scientific excellence of researcher and research proposal. Applicants must be leaders in their respective fields of research and must demonstrate significant achievement in the last 10 years. An ERC grant can cover up to 100% of the total eligible direct costs of the research plus a contribution of 25% of the total eligible costs towards indirect costs.
Deadlines for applications: September 1st, 2016. More information HERE.
