Feedback on EPSS
• High Demand on the FP7 Electronic Proposal Submission System (EPSS)
• Problems at Submission (~100 proposals)• Late submission (tentative uploads after deadline)• Some failure to comply with technical requirements
(invalid format of the proposal: not PDF format, protection by password)
• Late download of annexes (statements of support not signed by HI on time)

Feedback on Eligibility Issues
• Eligibility criteria issues• Completeness (including statement of support from institution)• Related to the ERC Starting Grant scheme: PhD, Host country
• Around 350 non-eligible proposals• Mainly for missing or invalid statement of support (more than 250
cases)• Also for ineligibility of PI (PhD outside eligibility period)
• Eligibility Committee• In case of doubt on eligibility, evaluation may proceed after a
decision by the eligibility review committee (~ 50 proposals)• Invalid statement of support (statement signed by the applicant on
behalf of the host)

ERC AdGLessons learned for StG
Maximise the Call Budget• By combining budgets over two successive years
(one application per researcher in 2008 or 2009)
Limit oversubscription• Only the best are encouraged to apply
• Excellent track record in recent years is a pre-requisite
• Applications should be substantive (one stage submission with two step evaluation)
• Disincentives for submissions which are not of the highest quality
Adjusted panel structure• Additional panels to take into account uneven demand and improve
the boundaries between fields covered by panels
Need to encourage interdisciplinary proposals• Separate interdisciplinary budget
• Higher budget limit
ER
C –
StG
Lessons learned
• Often applicants did not fully understand ERC concepts (frontier research, ‘individual team’)
• Applicants often not ambitious enough
• Often applicants did not explain why the research is important or what the impacts would be
• Many applications resembled job description written by a supervisor rather than showing the PI’s ideas
• Many people already fairly experienced (i.e. having UK fellowships)
• Applicants should aim their proposal at generalist reviewers (panel members) in Stage 1
• Although the top ranked proposals were outstanding, many average ones were also submitted

ERC Advanced GrantsIntroduction to the ERC Advanced Grant
Advanced Grants (AdG)
AdG aims to support
• Excellent, innovative and investigator-initiated research projects*• Flexible projects to promote substantial advances in the frontiers of
knowledge, such as:• new lines of enquiry• new methods and techniques• unconventional approaches• investigations at the interface between established disciplines• opening up new lines of enquiry in research field or other domains• high-risk, high-reward research• multi- and inter- disciplinary proposals, which are strongly encouraged
• Carried out by leading advanced investigators• whatever their nationality• must be already established and recognised as being independent research
leaders in their own right• PI can lead a team, if needed (more on this later)
*all fields of science and scholarship are eligible, except nuclear research

Hints and Tips PI Criteria
• Sell yourself!• Remember the Funding ID section in the CV is important.• Make sure you address the full requirements of the leadership profile,
and consider what makes your leadership profile stand out?• Clarify specific points to strengthen your application and give
additional relevant details.• Explain anything that is UK specific.• The Co-I(s) will also be evaluated – do they strengthen your proposal?• The evaluators will review the PI (+Co-I) on the basis of their
experience and information the PI (+Co-I) provide in the application form!
• If you refer to journal impact factors, state which one you are using.• Leave plenty of time to do the A1T forms on EPSS.

‘Individual Team’ Concept- PI
Principal Investigator (PI) = Team Leader• Central to the grant and review criteria• Must be a leading investigator already established as an
independent research leader in their own right…• ..and must be seen as such by peers• Has the power to assemble a research group of team members
(and in certain cases only, co-investigators)• Freedom to chose the research topic• Can be of any nationality or current location• But must carry out their research at an institution in EU Member
State or Associated Country if funded
• Chooses a host institution and applies in conjunction with host• If funded, signs ‘supplementary agreement’ with the host
• Host institution can not be changed during review process (tbc)but researchers can move once funded under certain conditions

‘Individual Team’ Concept- PI’s Host Institution
PI’s Host Institution• Can be any type of legal entity• Must be in an EU Member State or Associated Country• The PI does not have to be based there at the time of application
• Must guarantee independence of PI• Must not constrain the PI to the research strategy of the institution
• Must provide most of the infrastructure necessary for the research• Has appropriate intellectual environment and infrastructural support• This is assessed during Peer Review
• Is the ‘applicant legal entity’• Signs a Supporting Statement as part of application• If funded signs up to the Grant Agreement• If funded, signs a ‘Supplementary Agreement’ with the PI

‘Individual Team’ ConceptTeam Members
Team Members (if needed)• Grouping of researchers which meets the needs of the project without
‘artificial administrative constraints’… …but NOT a traditional network or research consortium
• Normally in the same institution as the PI• But could be national or trans-national• However, if in a separate legal entity involved, participation must be fully
justified in terms of scientific added value (assessed during peer review)• Team members can be of any nationality & established in almost any
country (not just EU/AC)• PI has freedom to choose appropriate team members• Team members do not need to be independent• Smaller role in applications forms and review than the PI (and Co-I) • Institution (s) where Teams based sign up to Grant Agreement• Named v’s un-named?

Review• Scientific Added Value of Co-I(s) also assessed during Peer Review• Can have more than one Co-I• Can be at same institution or different institution• Co-I can be of any nationality
Co-I’s Institution• Can be any type of legal entity• Co-I’s host organisation must be in EU Member State or Associated Country• Institution where Co-I is based signs up to Grant Agreement• TBC whether Co-I signs a ‘Supplementary Agreement’

• Provide a clear, concise work-plan which gives details of the immediate goals.
• Explain what each team member is doing (and their background/ recruitment profile)
• Highlight any intermediate stages where you may need to adjust your project planning.
• Clearly explain how you will manage and disseminate your project.
• Justify the resources you need for your research proposal and ensure the resources are appropriate. (Have you included all staff costs)

Hints and Tips Research Environment Criteria
• Sell your research environment in terms of appropriate intellectual environment and infrastructural support.
• If you have team members based in other legal entities have you justified this on the basis of scientific added value?
• Remember – if you project involves more than 1 legal entity then they need to sign the Grant Agreement too (make sure you include their research office in the proposal preparation).
• If you are planning to have a Co-I in your proposal make sure their role is clear and well justified (in terms of the research project and research environment).
