The ERC Consolidator Grant, a European grant of excellence
The ERC Consolidator Grant aims to fund exploratory research projects on an innovative theme for a period of 5 years with a budget of approximately 2 million euros.
Aimed at researchers with 7 to 12 years of experience after their PhD, this grant supports scientists with a promising career path who wish to build or consolidate their research team.
With a very high level of competitiveness, the ERC Consolidator Grant rewards projects of excellence on ambitious and risky research topics.
