ERC Synergy Grant: Key features and proposal success factors
Following an in-depth evaluation of the pilot ERC Synergy Grant calls in 2012 and 2013, this distinctive and highly competitive funding scheme now celebrates its comeback in the ERC Work Programme 2018. By a unique combination of 2-4 principal investigators (PI) with complementary skills and resources, ERC Synergy Grant projects should address ambitious research questions in a manner that would not be possible for the individual PIs.
The Synergy Grant aims for transformative research and is open for unconventional approaches and research at the interface of established disciplines. The funding amounts to maximum 10 mio Euro for 6 years, with the possibility for additional funding of up to 4 mio Euro in defined exceptional cases.
