The European Research Council funding
ERC funding is awarded to leading researchers for pioneering work at the frontiers of science. Scientific excellence is the sole criterion on the basis of which ERC frontier research grants are awarded.
ERC funding awards are categorized according to the professional stage: Starting Grants are for top researchers with 2 to 7 years experience after Ph.D., Consolidator Grants for those with 7–12 years experience after Ph.D., and Advance Grants supports established researchers known as leaders in their respective field of research. In addition, ERC grant recipients may apply for Proof of Concept funding as a recognition of the innovative potential of their ERC work and to support its commercial use. There are several ERC grants in the field of materials hosted by Aalto University.
