The ERC’s 2024 Work Programme has been recently adopted by the European Commission. The plan includes a new call for Starting grants for early-career scientist who has already produced excellent supervised work.
Starting Grants may be awarded up to € 1.5 million for a period of 5 years operating on a 'bottom-up' basis without predetermined priorities. Candidates need to be researchers of any nationality with 2-7 years of experience since completion of PhD, a scientific track record showing great promise and an excellent research proposal in order to apply.
Applications for an ERC grant require a single Principal Investigator (PI) to submit the application on behalf of their host institution. CIMNE is now receiving expressions of interest to manage the submission of joint applications with eligible researchers. The deadline for applications is within the 1st of September.
