Framework

 The ambition of the I-SITE ULNE project is to sustain and expand excellence in research and education. To achieve this challenge, we propose to researchers and laboratories of the I-SITE ULNE consortium a new instrument to boost the submission of ERC projects among our scientific community.

ERC GENERATOR:

Who can submit?

The call is open to researchers of I-SITE ULNE consortium (in or outside thematic hubs).

Goal:

The goal of the present call is to provide researchers with the appropriate scientific environment to improve their project, leading to an ERC grant.

Allocated resources:

The applicant will have to choose between a grant for one year of Post-doctoral recruitment or half of a grant for PhD recruitment. In addition, I-SITE ULNE will attribute 50 000€ to support the project development (if approved by the head of the institution, this grant can be used for compensation of teaching hours).

In agreement with the ambitions of I-SITE ULNE, special attention will be given to projects from or involving the human and social sciences.

Selection Process:

-          The application will have to be approved by the head of laboratory. A letter of support by an international ERC granted researcher is recommended but not mandatory. A validation by the head of the institution will be required.

-          Proposals will be reviewed and ranked by external reviewers.

The applicants will have 3 years to submit their ERC proposals following the I-SITE ULNE grant attribution (from starting date).

Application should be made online following this link: https://erc-generator.sciencesconf.org/
