Synergy Grant

11 July 2024 – 6 November 2024

For researchers that want to address a research problem so ambitious, that can not be dealt with them and their team alone.

Synergy Grants can be up to a maximum of € 10 million for a period of 6 years (pro rata for projects of shorter duration).

Who can apply?
A group of two to maximum four Principal Investigators (PIs) working together and bringing different skills and resources to tackle ambitious research problems. One will be designated as the corresponding PI (cPI).

No specific eligibility criteria regarding the academic training are foreseen for ERC Synergy Grants.

PIs must present a competitive track record as appropriate to their career stage.

Proposals are evaluated on the sole criterion of scientific excellence which takes on the additional meaning of outstanding intrinsic synergetic effect.
