1 The European Research Council Funding Opportunities in 2013 Pilar López, Ph.D. Scientific Officer ERC Executive Agency Scientific Department
2 European Research Council Outline Background Starting, Consolidator, Advanced and Synergy Grant Funding Schemes Data on submissions 2
3 Strategy Legislation European Research Council What is the ERC? The ERC supports excellence in frontier research through a bottom-up, individual-based, pan-european competition. Scientific Council with 22 members Support by the ERC Executive Agency Significant budget (1.2 billion /year) Excellence as the only valid criterion Support for the individual scientist no networks! International peer-review No predetermined subjects (bottom-up) Support of frontier research in all fields of science and humanities 3
4 Million Euro FP7 budget 50.5 billion ERC budget 7.5 billion; increase by 250 M/year European Research Council Co-operation (65 %) JRC nonnuclear (3 %) Capacities (8 %) People (9 %) Ideas (15 %) % % % 17.8% % 600 4% 7.3%
5 European Research Council Funding Strategy Funds top scientists based all over the world working on frontier research' Evaluation only based on 'excellence' Bottom-up, investigator driven approach Sizeable and flexible grants that make a difference Retain excellent researchers in Europe and the Associated Countries Repatriate and Recruit excellent researchers from outside Europe to Europe and the Associated Countries
6 European Research Council ERC Funding Schemes ERC offers independence, recognition & visibility to work on a research topic of own choice, with a team of own choice to gain true financial autonomy for 5 years to negotiate with the host institution the best conditions of work to attract top team members (EU and non-eu) and collaborators to move with the grant to any place in Europe if necessary (portability of grants) to attract additional funding and gain recognition; ERC is a quality label
7 After 5 years of existence A success story European Research Council Highly recognised by the research community More than 3000 funded proposals Working in >500 different host institutes in 27 countries; almost 5 billion euro Highly competitive (average success rate 12%) 50% of grantees in 50 institutes; 'Excellence attracts excellence' Benchmarking effect, e.g. competition between universities Efficient and fast grant management
8 European Research Council ERC Grant Schemes Starting Grants 2-7 years after PhD up to 2.0 M for 5 years Consolidator Grants (new from 2013) 7-12 years after PhD up to 2.75 M for 5 years Advanced Grants track-record of significant research achievements in the last 10 years up to 3.5 M for 5 years Synergy Grants 2 4 Principal Investigators up to 15.0 M for 6 years Proof-of-Concept bridging gap between research - earliest stage of marketable innovation - up to 150 k for ERC grant holders
9 Researchers career development and complementary funding schemes European Research Council ERC Advanced ERC SyG Synergy ERC StG Consolidators Senior Professor ERC StG - Starters Marie Curie Junior Professor/ Junior Researcher Associated Professor Full Professor Erasmus Post-docs Students Post Graduates
10 ERC Grant Schemes who can apply? European Research Council Excellent Researchers (PIs) Any nationality, age or current place of work In conjunction with a Host Institution Based in the EU or an Associated Country
11 European Research Council Excellence is the sole evaluation criterion Evaluation of excellence at two levels: Excellence of the Research Project Ground breaking nature Potential impact Scientific Approach Added-value of the Group (only SyG) Excellence of the Principal Investigator Intellectual capacity Creativity Commitment Referees and panels evaluate and score each criterion, which results in a ranking of the proposals.
12 European Research Council Panel Structure 3 domains 25 panels Life Sciences Each panel: Panel Chair and Panel Members LS1 Molecular & structural biology & biochemistry LS2 Genetics, genomics, bioinformatics & systems biology LS3 Cellular and developmental biology LS4 Physiology, pathophysiology & endocrinology LS5 Neurosciences & neural disorders LS6 Immunity & infection LS7 Diagnostic tools, therapies & public health LS8 Evolutionary, population & environmental biology LS9 Applied life sciences & biotechnology Social Sciences and Humanities SH1 Individuals, institutions & markets SH2 Institutions, values, beliefs and behaviour SH3 Environment, space and population SH4 The human mind and its complexity SH5 Cultures and cultural production SH6 The study of the human past Physical Sciences & Engineering PE1 Mathematical foundations PE2 Fundamental constituents of matter PE3 Condensed matter physics PE4 Physical & analytical chemical sciences PE5 Materials & synthesis PE6 Computer science & informatics PE7 Systems & communication engineering PE8 Products & process engineering PE9 Universe sciences PE10 Earth system science

19 Before submitting the proposal European Research Council Read the work programme and the Guide for applicants! from the ERC website or Cordis Get your idea clear. Ask the following questions: Is this a groundbreaking idea? Can I prove that I will go beyond the State of the art? Have I been able to identify the innovation components of my research? Ask questions to the NCP 19

22 European Research Council Preparing an application (1) Allow sufficient time to prepare your application Talk to the Grants Office Your Profile Major accomplishments; capacity and creativity; competitive edge; independence Be accurate Caution: assert; do not sell
23 European Research Council Preparing an application (2) Scientific proposal (15 pages) with an extended synopsis (5 pages) and an abstract State-of-the-art is not enough Explain ground-breaking features, high-risk/highgain balance Have alternative strategies to mitigate risk Justify the use of your resources
24 European Research Council Preparing an application (3) Follow the formatting rules and page limits Proof-read the proposal well Have all your documentation ready in time Submit in advance of the deadline
25 Evaluation of proposals Evaluation principles European Research Council Evaluation based on peer review, the procedure is defined by the Scientific Council Sole evaluation criteria: excellence. Excellence is implemented through the selection of well-known, knowledgeable top researchers as panel members High level Panel Members add credibility / visibility / prestige to the programme (Several Panel Members with Nobel Prize winners) Panel Members are selected and recruited by ERC Scientific Council
26 Who evaluate the proposals? Panel members: typically 600 / call high-level well-known scientists recruited by ScC from all over the world: ~14% from outside Europe typically 12 members & the chair/panel Referees: typically 2000 / call evaluate only a small number of proposals similar to normal practise in peer-reviewed journals are nominated by the panel members US (7%) Other (7%) Europe and Associated Countries (86%)
27 Possibility to exclude reviewers (new since 2012) European Research Council PI can nominate up to three persons to be excluded from the evaluation of their proposal, specifying the reason for exclusion: Direct scientific rivalry Professional Hostility Similar situation which would impair or put in doubt the objectivity of the potential evaluator Exclusion may concern any independent expert, including the panel chair, panel members as well as remote referees The concerned persons will be excluded from the evaluation of the proposal assuming that the ERCEA is still in a position to evaluate the proposal properly
28 Schemes Evaluation of Excellence: Criterion 1: Research Project Ground-breaking nature and potential impact of the research: To what extent does the proposed research address important challenges? To what extent are the objectives ambitious and beyond the state of the art (e.g. novel concepts and approaches or development across disciplines)? How much is the proposed research high risk/high gain?
29 StG and CoG Schemes Evaluation of Excellence Criterion 2: Principal Investigator(s) Intellectual capacity, creativity and commitment: The PI has demonstrated the ability to propose and conduct groundbreaking research and his/her achievements have typically gone beyond the state-of-the-art The PI provides abundant evidence of creative independent thinking The ERC Grant would contribute significantly to the establishment and/or further consolidation of the PI's independence The PI is strongly committed to the project and demonstrates the willingness to devote a significant amount of time to the project (min 50% of the total working time on it and min 50% in an EU Member State or Associated Country) (based on Scientific Proposal).
