Research Services is pleased to invite you to our support activities for the upcoming European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator Grant 2025 call (deadline 14 January 2025). It is worth noting that significant changes to the application template and the evaluation criteria were introduced in 2024, so participation in the workshop is recommended even for those researchers who have previously applied for an ERC grant.
Workshop
Research Services invites you to a Consolidator Grants workshop on 18 September via Zoom. The workshop will provide you with an in-depth overview and practical information on the ERC Consolidator Grants scheme, as well as deeper understanding of the proposal format and the key issues relating to planning, writing and costing a proposal. The workshop is open for those planning to apply for an ERC Consolidator Grant in the upcoming 2025 call, as well as those interested in applying for an ERC grant further on.
Date: Wednesday 18 September 2024, between 9.00 – 13.00
Venue: Zoom
Individual Consultations
Research Services offers individual consultations with our experienced advisors to discuss your CV, the suitability of your project idea for the ERC, and the timing of your proposal. You will need to submit a copy of your CV and a brief summary of your project idea in advance.
Date: 19 – 20 September 2024, multiple timeslots available
Venue: Medicon Village, Lund, or Zoom
