ERC grants

European Research Council grants

The European Research Council (ERC) was set up by the European Commission. It provides funding for top researchers in order to promote basic research and visionary projects, and to enable new interdisciplinary fields to be explored.

The ERC awards Starting Grants to promising young researchers to give them the chance to establish their own research groups and to independently pursue research projects with great innovative potential.

ERC Consolidator Grants are awarded to promising young researchers at the start of their independent careers.
