journée d'information : appels à proposition ERC 2012

Le Point de Contact National pour le Conseil Européen de la Recherche organise conjointement à Dijon et à Besançon en visioconférence, en partenariat avec l’Université de Bourgogne et l’Université de Franche-Comté, une demi‐journée d’information consacrée aux appels à proposition ERC 2012 :

“Starting Independent Researcher Grants” et “Advanced Investigator Grants”

Le vendredi 16 Septembre 2011 de 13h45 à 17h,

Visioconférence à Besançon - IUT - 30 avenue de l'Observatoire

Dans le cadre du 7ème PCRD, les appels à propositions de l’ERC permettent de financer des projets de recherche fondamentale et sont ouverts à l’ensemble des domaines scientifiques sans restrictions. L’ERC propose deux types de financement, le principal critère d’évaluation des projets étant l’excellence scientifique:

- « Starting Independent Researcher Grant », visant à soutenir les jeunes chercheurs dans l’installation d’une équipe de recherche indépendante autour d’un projet de recherche fondamentale.

- « Advanced Investigator Grant», visant à soutenir des projets de recherche ambitieux, « aux frontières de la connaissance », portés par des chercheurs expérimentés.

Si vous souhaitez assister à cette demi-journée, merci de bien vouloir confirmer votre participation à l’adresse suivante : sea@u-bourgogne.fr en indiquant en copie pauline.fournier@univ-fcomte.fr

Le programme définitif sera diffusé prochainement.
