LAUNCH OF THE EUROPEAN RESEARCH COUNCIL (ERC)

There was much jubilation as politicians, scientists and industry gathered to officially launch the European Research Council (ERC) in Berlin the 26th of February.
The ERC will be the first pan-European funding agency for frontier research in all fields of knowledge, from the Humanities and Social Sciences, to the Life Sciences and to the Physical and Engineering Sciences.
