Université Marie et Louis Pasteur to host ERC funding information day

The Université Marie et Louis Pasteur (UMLP) will host an information day on October 6, 2026, in Besançon to assist researchers with European Research Council (ERC) funding applications. The event, organized by the Direction de la Recherche, de la Valorisation et de l’Innovation (DRVI), aims to demystify ERC funding, explain evaluation criteria, and provide practical advice for drafting competitive research proposals.

Participants will have the opportunity to interact with the ERC National Contact Point and various support units. The session is designed for researchers from UMLP and its associated institutions to better understand the philosophy of ERC calls and the support mechanisms available through their respective research establishments.
