Framework Programme:

FP7- IDEAS

Brief Description:

The ERC Advanced Investigator Grants (ERC Advanced Grants) aim to encourage and support excellent, innovative investigator-initiated research projects by leading advanced investigators across the Member States and Associated countries.

The Grants will support projects carried out by individual teams which are headed by a single Principal Investigator (PI) of any nationality and, as necessary, include additional team-members. These teams may be of national or trans-national character.

An ERC grant is awarded to the institution (Applicant Legal Entity) that engages and hosts the Principal Investigator, with the attached commitment that this institution offers appropriate conditions for the Principal Investigator independently to direct the research and manage its funding for the duration of the project. These conditions, including the "portability" of the project, are the subject of an agreement between the principal investigator and the host insitution (supplementary to the ERC Grant Agreement) and are described in the ERC Model Grant Agreement.

Any type of legal entity, including universities, research centres and business research units can host the Principal Investigator and his/her team as long as the principles indicated above are respected and the Principal Investigator and his/her activity are not constrained by the research strategy of the enterprise.
