The European Research Council (ERC) is set to launch its first seven-year €7 million super grant call in May next year.
The grants, called ERC+, will be open to researchers at all career stages and in all fields. But applicants will have to wait until autumn 2026 to find out all the details.
“We are still working on it,” Angela Liberatore, head of the ERC scientific department, told researchers in a webinar on July 10.
