ERC Grants 2024: Funding for top researchers of all nationalities

Note: You may access the presentation PDF in the Attachments section below. The video recording can be found embedded below and here.

Join us for a webinar on bottom-up funding from the European Research Council, the premier European funding organization for excellent frontier research. The ERC supports investigator-driven frontier research across all fields. It awards research grants to scientists and scholars from all over the world, both early-career and senior researchers, carrying out their ambitious research projects in all scientific disciplines in Europe.

In this webinar, you will hear from a representative of the ERC Executive Agency (ERCEA), who will also address your queries during a Q&A session. Familiarize yourself with the basics and check out the ERC Classes video playlist beforehand as well as last year's webinar on ERC grants.

This free webinar is directed at postdoctoral researchers and established researchers (PhD plus two years' experience) of all disciplines and all nationalities, as well as university officials promoting funding and it will take place on Thursday, September 28th, 2023 at 12:30 PM Eastern / 9:30 AM Pacific / 6:30 PM CEST (convert to your local time zone here), lasting approximately one hour.
