Part of the series: Information Webinar

Join Research Development for an information session about the ERC Starting Grant, hear from two successful awardees: Novi Quadrianto (Informatics) and Dan Paget (Politics).

ERC Starting Grants are targeted at talented early-career scientists who have already produced excellent supervised work, are ready to work independently and show potential to be a research leader. Researchers can apply for a Starting Grant immediately after successfully defending their PhD, and at any time within the following 10-year period.

Starting Grants promote substantial advances in the frontiers of knowledge - in any research discipline - by encouraging new, innovative thinking. Up to €1.5m per grant is available for a maximum of 5 years. The Call runs annually and this year’s deadline is expected to be 14 October 2026.

If you have any questions about the session, please email Lucy Bell l.c.bell@sussex.ac.uk or Shelley Jenkins S.L.Jenkins@sussex.ac.uk
