ERC Grants
CISPA researchers have already received numerous scientific prizes and awards. Among the most important of these are the nine ERC Grants that our researchers have won to date. With these grants, the EU supports excellent scientists and their groundbreaking research.
In the funding schemes Starting, Consolidator or Advanced Grants, the European Research Council (ERC) funds outstanding individual scientists for a period of one to five years. Depending on the funding scheme, the funding amounts to between 1.5 and 2.5 million euros. The ERC Synergy Grant supports research teams of two to four promising scientists with a maximum of 10 million euros for up to six years. Researchers who have already secured one of the main grants can further apply for the Proof of Concept Grant, which provides 150.000 euros in supplementary funding for a period of 18 months.
