  ERC Synergy Grant

  Deadline: Tuesday 8 November 2022

  The ERC Synergy grant is a grant scheme that supports small teams of scientists who wish to jointly address ambitious research problems that could not be addressed by the individual Principal Investigators and their teams working alone. Synergy projects should enable substantial advances at the frontiers of knowledge, stemming, for example, from the cross-fertilisation of scientific fields, from new productive lines of enquiry, or new methods and techniques, including unconventional approaches and investigations at the interface between established disciplines. PIs must present an early achievement track-record or a ten-year track-record. The call will open in July, and has a deadline on 8 November 2022.
