The UK Research Office (UKRO), in its capacity as UK National Contact Point for the European Research Council (ERC), is organising a webinar for researchers who are interested in applying for the 2025 ERC Advanced Grant call.

Attendance will be free of charge, but registration for each webinar is required.

The webinar will provide information on the submission process, how proposals are evaluated and other elements you’ll need to consider when designing a project for your research excellence idea ahead of the ERC Advanced Grant deadline 28th August 2025.

Joining the webinar will be Antonino Puglisi, UK National Contact Point and Professor Rachel Gibson who will share details of her journey towards getting an ERC Advanced grant.

The session will last 2 hours with a break midway through.

The overall aim of this webinar is to provide participants with detailed, practical information about the ERC Advanced Grant scheme.

The evaluation procedure and how to approach writing an application will also be explained.
