(!!!!!) • Expected Results and Lead Users (also other researchers!) • Work plan/Phases of work to reach objectives • Expected Costs • Expected Duration

  11. ERC StG Are you a competitive candidate? “potential for research independence and evidence of maturity including producing independently at least one important publication without the participation of their PhD supervisor. Applicants should also be able to demonstrate a promising track-record of early achievements appropriate to their research field and career stage, including significant publications (as main author) in major international peer-reviewed multidisciplinary scientific journals, or in the leading international peer-reviewed journals of their respective field. They may also refer to monographs or demonstrate a record of invited presentations in well-established international conferences, granted patents, awards, prizes etc.»
