The interview training will be held on two occasions: the first on 2 February and the second on 6 February.

The Swedish Research Council supports researchers who apply for grants from the European Research Council, ERC, in various ways. This webinar aims 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 ask questions to previous ERC AdG recipients as well as researchers that have been on the panel.
There is also an opportunity to book a private meeting with a professional coach to practice presentation technique. For this, please contact Anethe Mansén, National Contact Point (NCP) for the European Research Council (ERC).
