SYNERGY 2018 (SYG) FUNDING SCHEME - AGNES KULCSAR, UNIT B2 CALL AND PROJECT FOLLOW-UP COORDINATION LEEDS, 14 JUNE 2017 - WHITE ROSE BRUSSELS
Background

• 2012-2013: two pilot Synergy grant calls
   1,5-3% success rate: 24 projects selected
• 2014: the ad-hoc Synergy Working Group of the
  Scientific Council decided to assess the pilot
  funding scheme
   Assessment report delivered – December 2015
• 2016: the Scientific Council decided to re-launch
  the scheme
   Implementation: 2018 Work Programme

Synergy grant assessment report -
 outcome
• Synergy grant scheme would be a valuable addition to the
  current ERC frontier schemes because of:
    Its high international recognition - putting European
       research on the global map, often in leading position;
    The highly ambitious research goals it will trigger –
       that cannot be achieved by a single PI;
    The complementarity of PIs/teams it favours;
    The cross-fertilization of disciplines and signs of new
       fields emerging it generates;
    The close collaboration it triggers which goes much
       beyond any regular EU framework collaborative
       project
                                                                │4

Synergy assessment report -
outcome - continued

• It was noted that:
   'Seed' effects are visible: expanding the fields and
    attracting further funding
   Early career scientists team members are broadening
    their expertise and opportunities
   Increased and/or unconventional collaborations
    between institutions are emerging
   Synergy grants – are perceived as the most
    prestigious ERC grant

Synergy Grant – Objectives
2018 Work Programme text
pending the adoption of the ERC Work Programme 2018 in July 2017

ERC Synergy Grants are intended to enable minimum two to maximum
four Principal Investigators and their teams to bring together
complementary skills, knowledge, and resources in new ways, in order to
jointly address ambitious research problems.
 The aim is to promote substantial advances at the frontiers of knowledge,
to cross-fertilize scientific fields, and to encourage new productive lines of
enquiry and new methods and techniques, including unconventional
approaches and investigations at the interface between established
disciplines. This should enable transformative research not only at the
forefront of European science but also to become a benchmark on a global
scale.
Applicants Principal Investigators must demonstrate the synergies,
complementarities and added value that could lead to breakthroughs that
would not be possible by the individual Principal Investigators
working alone.
Profile of the ERC Synergy Grant Principal
Investigators
2018 Work programme text
pending the adoption of the ERC Work Programme 2018 in July 2017

Groups applying for the ERC Synergy Grant must be made up of a minimum
of two and a maximum of four Principal Investigators and, as necessary, their
teams. One of the Principal Investigators must be designated as the
Corresponding Principal Investigator.

Applications are expected from a group of innovative and active Principal
Investigators and must present an early achievement track-record or a 10-
year track-record whichever is most appropriate for their career stage (see
Starting, Consolidator and Advanced Grant profiles above). There is little
prospect of an application succeeding in the absence of such a record.

ERC Synergy Grants are designed to foster research at the intellectual
frontiers. New types of joint effort may be needed that allow for new
combinations of skills and disciplines, or the bringing together of researchers
from different institutions, sectors or countries.
Synergy Grant – Restrictions
2018 Work Programme text
pending the adoption of the ERC Work Programme 2018 in July 2017

Restrictions that Scientific Council intends to apply
  A Principal Investigator whose proposal was evaluated as category B at step 1
  or step 2 in the Synergy Grant call for proposals under Work Programme 2018
  may not submit a proposal to the Synergy Grant calls for proposals made
  under Work Programme 2019.

   A Principal Investigator whose proposal was evaluated as category C at step 1
   in the Synergy Grant call for proposals under Work Programme 2018 may not
   submit a proposal to any ERC research grant calls for proposals made under
   Work Programme 2019 or for the Synergy Grant call in 2020.

   All Principal Investigators whose proposal was rejected on the grounds of a
   breach of research integrity in the Synergy Grant calls for proposals under
   Work Programme 2018 may not submit a proposal to the calls for proposals
   made under Work Programme 2019.
Design of the 2018 Synergy call
pending the adoption of the ERC Work Programme 2018 in July 2017

• Indicative budget foreseen for 2018: 250 M€
     To select 25-30 projects
• 2 or 3 or 4 Principal Investigators
• No restrictions on location of PIs
     PI can come from the same corridor in one HI, different HIs
      within one country, or from different countries (within EU or AC)
•   Indicative call opening: 19 July 2017
•   Indicative call closure: 14 November 2017
•   More streamlined evaluation process
•   Proposals to be evaluated between November 2017
    and September 2018.

Design of the 2018 Synergy call – continued
pending the adoption of the ERC Work Programme 2018 in July 2017

• PIs to be considered as equal, but a corresponding PI to be
  designated who will be the administrative contact for the
  duration of the project.
• Normal maximum budget of 10 M€ per grant
      With additional 4 M€ more in case:
           a) "start-up' costs for Principal Investigators moving to the EU or AC
              and/or
           b) the purchase of major equipment and/or
           c) access to large facilities
• Time commitment: ≥50% of working time in EU or AC and
  ≥30% of working time on the ERC project

Take home messages

• ERC foresees to be a highly competitive call
    only exceptional proposals are likely to be funded that will
     demonstrate that the truly ambitious research questions could lead
     to breakthroughs only through the joint effort of the
     complementary and synergistic group of PIs.
• ‘Synergy’ is not simply a successful collaboration
    The interaction would yield something more than just the sum of the
     individual parts.
    To yield possibly either unforeseen, completely new science, to
     cross fertilize disciplines or to solve important research problems
     that until now could not be dreamt of solving.
• Tough future restrictions on submissions planned
    applicants to think twice before applying: PIs evaluated with a C
     score in 2018 will not be able to apply to any ERC call in 2019.
                                                                         │ 19
