Are you planning to prepare a proposal for the ERC funding scheme? On Thursday 14 April, 12.00-14.00, a UM-wide information session will be held on the Starting, Consolidator and Advanced Grant instruments of the European Research Council (ERC) within Horizon 2020. The session will provide you with information on the scheme and the application process, and there will be room to ask questions. Please register before 8 April.
A representative of Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland (RVO), in which the National Contact Point (NCP) for ERC is embedded, will introduce the scheme and give some information on the application process. A successful Starting Grant applicant will share his experiences with the application and an Advanced Grant laureate, who has served on the ERC evaluation panel, will share experiences of the evaluation process. Attendees can ask questions during the Q&A session at the end of the event.
