As part of the ERC-UPSaclay support, two sessions for candidates from the Université Paris-Saclay perimeter (and Institut Polytechnique de Paris) wishing to apply to the ERC Advanced Grants 2021 call (or subsequent calls) are organised on May 4 & 5 2021.
These sessions will be composed of two phases:
- A general introduction of the ERC Advanced Gant 2021 : May 4th (9.00am - 1.00pm). The objective of this session will be to provide an overview of the evaluation criteria, submission process, and ERC panels.There will also be a round-table discussion, in which experts, laureates and European Affairs Officers will participate. This will be an opportunity for you to benefit from advice from different stakeholders and to ask any questions you may have.
- Advices on how to write a proposal will be given during a webinar on May 5th (9.00am - 1.00pm). The aim of this webinar will be to provide writing guidelines and best practices to prepare and optimize your grant application: Parts B1 and B2. A time for questions and answers will be set at the end of the session.
The final programme will be sent to all registered participants a few days before the session.
You will also be able to benefit from a one-hour individual interview with one of our experts about your project idea. The interviews will take place from May 25th to May 28th. After registering, we will get back to you with the details of the interview. Due to the current context, all interviews will be conducted by videoconference. Please indicate in the "comments" part of the form if you have any particular availability during this period (morning, afternoon,...)
Please note: if you are not available from May 25th to 28th, you will be able to benefit from a session via Skype at a later date. Please make sure to indicate this on the registration form.
Registration is free but mandatory. Please note that the webinar as well as the individual interviews are reserved for researchers and teacher-researchers within the perimeter of the Université Paris-Saclay (as well as the Institut Polytechnique de Paris).
Please note: due to the situation related to COVID-19, the sessions will be held as a webinar. We will send the final program and the link to connect online to all registrants a few days before the session.
