What is the ERC?

The ERC funds ground-breaking frontier research projects across all fields of science, and offers selective and generous grants, independence, recognition and visibility. The ERC’s ‘bottom-up’ approach allows successful candidates to work on a topic of their own choice, with a team of their own choice. Grantees gain true financial autonomy for 5 years. The ERC is a global quality label recognised by the international research community. Researchers from anywhere in the world can apply for ERC grants provided the research they undertake will be carried out in an EU Member State or Associated Country.
