ERC Grants Info Session for Researchers in Latin America and the Caribbean
October 15 @ 3:00 pm - 4:15 pm
The European Research Council (ERC) and EURAXESS Latin America and the Caribbean are running a free online info session on ERC funding, for researchers in Latin America and the Caribbean who want to apply for an ERC grant or join an ERC-funded team.
The webinar is aimed at researchers, principal investigators, postdoctoral fellows and research administrators. It will give an overview of the ERC funding opportunities coming up in 2026 and 2027, with practical guidance on:
- preparing a competitive proposal
- building interdisciplinary, high-impact international research teams
- making the move towards independent research leadership
The session runs in English on Zoom on Thursday 15 October 2026, from 16.00 to 17.15 CEST (3pm to 4.15pm UK time).
ERC grants are open to researchers of any nationality, as long as the research is carried out at a host institution in Europe or an associated country (including the UK, which rejoined Horizon Europe in 2024), so this is also a useful introduction for anyone further afield thinking about an ERC application.
Registration
Taking part is free, but you need to register in advance.
