If you consider applying for an ERC Starting Grant, the ERC Starting Grant Workshop organised on 13 June 2019 might be something for you. This workshop provides more in-depth information and is a follow up of the general information session, which will take place on 8 May, 2019. If you are interested please contact your funding advisor before 31 May, 2019. The deadline for your CV and research idea is 7 June, 2019.
The workshop is for excellent researchers (2-7 years after promotion) with an excellent idea for frontier research, who consider applying for an ERC Starting Independent Researcher grant (max. € 1.5 million over a period of max. 5 years).

The workshop is in English. As the maximum number of participants for the workshop is 24, participation is subject to an intake procedure. We would like you to write your research idea in two A4 and provide your CV by sending them to Merle Achten.
