Seminar on the ERC funding programme 2014 -2020

European Research Council (ERC) grants support individual researchers of any nationality and age who wish to pursue their frontier research. The ERC encourages in particular proposals that cross disciplinary boundaries, pioneering ideas that address new and emerging fields and applications that introduce unconventional, innovative approaches. ERC grants are awarded through open competition to projects headed by starting and established researchers - the sole criterion for selection is scientific excellence.

ERC grants are part of the European Horizon 2020 programme for research and innovation. Last December the ERC published the new work programme containing the first ERC calls under Horizon 2020. To gain an overall view of the rules and possibilities, we cordially invite you for an ERC information session. The seminar will be chaired by Dr. José Manuel Fernández de la Labastida, Scientific Management Department, ERC Executive Agency.
