Szanowni Państwo,
w dn. 10 czerwca został przyjęty przez Komisję Europejską Program Pracy Europejskiej Rady ds. Badań naukowych (ERC) na rok 2024. Zawiera on nowe elementy dotyczące oceny wniosków oraz CV kandydatów, a także samego procesu ewaluacji. Nowy Program Pracy wprowadza również finansowanie ryczałtowe (lum-sum) w grantach ERC typu Advanced oraz zmiany w strukturze paneli oceniających.
Podsumowanie najważniejszych zmian wprowadzonych w Programie Pracy ERC na 2024 r.:
Main features of 2024 Work Programme
- Research assessment: Scientific excellence remains the sole criterion of evaluation for frontier research grants, but the Work Programme introduces changes to the structure of the Curriculum Vitae and Track Record, as well as to the evaluation procedure, where greater emphasis is placed on the quality of the project.
- Lump sums: Advanced Grants will be implemented as a pilot call using a lump sum contribution, while Starting, Consolidator, and Synergy Grants will continue to be offered under the actual cost model.
- Proof of Concept Grants: As of 2024, applications for these grants will be evaluated and selected in two instead of three rounds, based on two specific cut-off dates.
- Starting, Consolidator, and Advanced Grants: a maximum of 44 proposals per panel will be assessed at step 2 of the evaluation. Moreover, a distinction in the scoring at step 1 will be made between proposals obtaining a score of A and invited to step 2 of the evaluation, and proposals obtaining a score of A but not ranked sufficiently high to be invited to step 2. The latter proposals won’t be subject to resubmission restrictions.
- A new evaluation panel (SH8) has been created in the Social Sciences and Humanities domain to restore the balance between the coverage of social sciences and humanities. In addition, some descriptors (LS3, LS5) have been changed to make the disciplinary coverage clearer to the applicants.
- Public Engagement with Research Award: the ERC grantees with ongoing or recently completed projects will be able to enter the contest for the Public Engagement with Research Award.
