The 2026 ERC Starting Grant call is expected to open during the summer, with deadline in October 2025. UiO is arranging a webinar that will prepare applicants for applying for this call.
After a brief introduction to the architecture of the ERC programme and its different instruments, the training session will explore how a compelling ERC narrative can be crafted. Based on examples, we then detail how the narrative can be consistently and convincingly presented across the proposal documents and subsections. The training is concluded with a walk-through of key take-aways and essential features of successful proposals. The training will equip potential ERC candidates with approaches and tools for their proposal drafting - and additionally assists them in making informed decisions about when and whether to apply.
The event will be held as a webinar with two sessions and a break. There will be time for questions during the course.
The webinar is primarily meant for applicants who want to submit a proposal for the ERC Starting grant call, but will also be of value for those who plan to apply for a Consolidator grant as well as for support staff.
This webinar is held in cooperation with Innovayt AS where Morten Kr?ger will be presenter. The information will be given in English.
Registered participants will receive a link to the zoom webinar before the event.
