Fostering Days @Home: ERC-2022-StG/CoG Support
The ERC's mission is to encourage the highest quality research in Europe through competitive funding and to support investigator-driven frontier research across all fields, on the basis of scientific excellence.
The ERC aims to:
Support the best of the best in Europe across all fields of science, scholarship and engineering
Promote wholly investigator-driven, or 'bottom-up' frontier research
Encourage the work of the established and next generation of independent top research leaders in Europe
Reward innovative proposals by placing emphasis on the quality of the idea rather than the research area
Raise the status and visibility of European frontier research and the very best researchers of today and tomorrow
