How to use ERC Finder for your research career
Find active ERC grantees in your field
Filter by ERC panel (LS5 for Neuroscience, PE6 for Computer Science…) and sort by most recent grants. These are researchers with 5-year funding windows.
Identify funding-rich institutions
ERC grants are highly concentrated in a few elite institutions. Filter by country or institution to see which labs attract the most ERC support.
Read the project abstract
ERC abstracts are detailed scientific descriptions. Read them to understand whether a lab's current direction fits your skills before reaching out.
Match your career stage
Starting Grants go to early-career PIs (2–7 years post-PhD). They are more likely to be actively hiring. Consolidator and Advanced Grant holders have larger, more established groups.
