ERC Beyond: A deep dive into the elusive and conceptual expectations - LIVE ONLINE WORKSHOP
21 April 2020 - 21 April 2020
Online, Israel
The “ERC Beyond” workshop conveys to participants information that is beyond the ERC guide for applicants. From experience, we have come to understand and strongly believe that what sets apart less competitive ERC grant proposals from the highly competitive ones is a firm grasp of the programme’s elusive and unwritten conceptual rules.
Therefore, during this workshop we accelerate to the counterintuitive, elusive and conceptual parts of the ERC grant.
If you read the work program carefully you will surely notice the sole criterion is excellence.
This is exactly where we come in. We decipher “excellence” for you, which is considered by many as ‘counter-intuitive’, based on our hands-on experience working with thousands of projects in the last decade.
Having worked with thousands of ERC applicants, we know how to decipher the counterintuitive “excellence” essence (the sole criterion within the ERC work program), as well as additional “unwritten” rules for success.
The topics of the workshop include:
- Screening ERC candidates – What constitutes the “ERC Material” and when to say “No”
- What constitutes the required Scientific Excellence?
- The unique nature of ERC: High risk, high gain, non-incremental work
- Hypothesis for ERC – how to do it right
- How to write a convincing methodology chapter
- Review Panel selection
- The panel-application reciprocal effect
- Application and submission process
- The evaluation process
- Ethical issues
And more…
As we discuss the above, we always keep in mind the most important grant writing aspect – the point of view of the reviewers. Since we know what reviewers are looking for, we know exactly what researchers should focus on and what they should avoid, and make sure to focus on such tips and insights throughout the entire workshop.
If you are new to the ERC funding scheme - we do recommend to begin with our online “ERC Basics” workshop which covers all the technical rules and expectations of this unique funding scheme.
