Interview training for the ERC 2024 Advanced Grant

The Swedish Research Council supports researchers who apply for grants from the European Research Council, ERC, in various ways. The workshop serie aim to prepare candidates with Swedish universities as host institutions for the interview with the ERC panel. The candidates will have the opportunity to meet and obtain information from researchers with experiences from ERC interviews, as well as researchers with experiences from ERC review panel evaluations.
