Dear all,
To support/encourage a greater number of applications to the ERC program, UIB will continue its ERC Starting Grant Development Program in 2025.
The program is expected to follow the same format with three physical seminars and one digital workshop. The program will take place February – June 2025. Exact dates and content will be finalized in autumn 2024.
Departments are asked to send a list of potential participants to the faculty.
As participants will be actively working to develop their research concepts throughout the program, they should actively plan to submit an ERC application to the 2026 Starting Grant call (expected deadline in October 2025).
If capacity allows, the program may open up for candidates planning to apply for the ERC Consolidator Grant.
Please inform the department by Monday, November 11th if you:
- Plan to appy to the next ERC StG or CoG
- Wish to participate in UIB’s ERC Development Program
Thanks and best wishes,
Sjoukje
