ERC Synergy Grant - Swiss National Information Event

ERC Synergy Grants fund research projects that are so ambitious that they need 2-4 PIs (each typically with a team) with complimentary backgrounds and skills working closely together in novel ways. One of the PIs may be from a country anywhere in the world not associated to Horizon Europe.

Therefore even in today's situation for Switzerland, researchers based in Switzerland may be part of a Synergy team with the currently published call which closes on 10 November 2021. In this online event, co-organised by the Swiss ERC National Contact Persons and the grants office at the ETH and University of Zurich, you will learn more about this exciting scheme and what it takes to prepare a competitive proposal.
