The @ERC_Research is experimenting with radical simplification of administration to remove obstacles to research. An example that we hope many institutions will follow.

The @ERC_Research is simplifying funding by reducing reporting burdens for researchers & host institutions. This aligns with calls for "radical simplification" and the "Trust Researchers" petition. A trust-first approach can lead to transformative changes. aerg.eu/news/Simple is B…

Congratulations to our new ERC Consolidator grantees!
It remains a fact though that many excellent applicants couldn’t be funded due to lack of @ERC_research budget.
This waste of talent can only be tackled by increasing the investment in blue sky research in Europe.
