1 7th Framework Programme Specific Programme “Ideas” European Commission Directorate B November 2005

2   Cooperation - thematic research areas   Ideas - frontier research (ERC)   People - human resources   Capacities:   Infrastructures   SMEs   Regions of knowledge   Research potential   Science in society FP7 ( ) – Building the Europe of knowledge

3   Support to individual teams, to promote excellence through Europe-wide competition   Frontier research   Investigator-driven   All areas of science and technology   Independent scientific governance (Scientific Council)   Dedicated implementation structure (Executive Agency)   Simplified grant mechanism Specific programme “Ideas”

4   Encouraging and supporting the finest talent   Selecting the most promising research areas   Giving European visibility to research leaders   Catalysing the creation of a more efficient European research system Frontier Research: The European Challenge, April 2005; Report by the Frontier research High-level Expert Group European added value through Europe-wide competition

5 A new understanding of basic research is needed to avoid outmoded distinctions:   Between “basic” and “applied” research   Between “science” and “technology”   Between “traditional” disciplines The term “Frontier research” reflects:   going beyond these categories;   that basic research in science and technology is of critical importance to economic and social welfare;   that research at and beyond the frontiers of understanding is an intrinsically risky venture;   that it is characterised by an absence of disciplinary boundaries. Why frontier research?

6 The term “individual team”, designating the ERC unit of support   The principal investigator (the ‘team leader’) has   power to assemble his/her research group regardless of size   and the freedom to choose the research topic.   Individual teams may consist of any grouping of researchers which is appropriate for the conduct of a project; thus members may be drawn from one or several legal entities, from either within or across national boundaries, including third countries Individual team

7   Autonomous (independent of political interest)   Efficient (low bureaucracy)   With necessary financial means (at programme and project level) But also….   Accountable (scientific, financial)   Appropriate European Structure Implementation requirements

8   Scientific Council   Dedicated implementation structure (Executive Agency; possible Article 171 structure later) The European Research Council (ERC): structural components

9   Names of SC founding members were announced on 18 July 2005 following an independent procedure carried out by the ERC Identification Committee   Independent; respected scientific personalities, reflecting the full scope of European research; acting in their personal capacity   Responsible for oversight and guarantee of quality in scientific decision-making   Prior to FP7 decision, would act as advisory body in the development of the Specific programme “Ideas”   Nominated by EC decision ERC Scientific Council (SC)

10   Establish overall scientific strategy   Ensure the preparation of the work programme (including calls for proposals, detailed criteria of excellence, …)   Define peer review methodology; ensure selection and accreditation of experts   Monitor quality of operations and evaluate programme implementation   Assure communication with the scientific community Role of the ERC Scientific Council (SC)

11   Execute work programme as established by the Scientific Council   Implement calls for proposals (information and support to applicants; proposal reception/eligibility check; etc.)   Organise peer review evaluation   Establish grant agreements, transfer funds   Administer scientific and financial aspects and follow-up of grant agreements ERC Dedicated Implementation Structure

12   Guarantor of the autonomy and integrity of the ERC   Ensure that implementation follows principles of autonomy   Adopt work programme as established by the Scientific Council   “Double lock” by the Programme Committee   Provide annual report on ERC operations to Council and European Parliament The European Commission’s duties

13 An investment in research and research leaders   Support for investigator-driven research projects implemented by individual teams   Attractive (budget size, duration and conditions)   Administratively simple   Flexible in application Frontier Research Grant: Key principles

14 Scientific Council will set parameters and oversee the process.   Excellence and transparency are key principles   Permanent pool of accredited peer reviewers needed (= World’s best scientists and scholars)   High throughput, quasi-continuous processes may be necessary Peer review process
