15 IDEAS European Research Council ERC objective: execute the Ideas Program Reinforce excellence, dynamism and creativity in European research and improve the attractiveness of Europe for the best researchers from both European and third countries, as well as for industrial research investment, by providing a Europe-wide competitive funding structure, in addition to and not replacing national funding, for frontier research executed by individual teams. Key issues: Excellence in frontier research Bottom-up versus targeted research Individual versus collaborative research

16 IDEAS European Research Council ERC operations ERC operates according to the principles of scientific excellence, autonomy, efficiency, transparency and accountability, and supports investigator-driven projects in frontier research, carried out by individual teams competing at the European level, within and across all fields of research. Key issues: Excellence as the only criterion Flexibility All fields of knowledge

17 IDEAS Frontier research: who is supported and how Bottom-up (no thematic priorities) Individual PIs and their teams (4-5 post-docs and Ph.Ds) Starting Grants (2-7 years post Ph.D.) Consolidators Grants (7-12 years post Ph.D.) Cultivating the next generation: early scientific independence Advanced Grants: encourage risk-taking, break-through ideas
