2023: European Research Council Grants for Top Researchers from Anywhere in the World

EURAXESS Australia & New Zealand and the European Research Council (ERC), bring to you a webinar on ERC funding opportunities. The ERC is the premier European funding organisation for excellent frontier research. It supports investigator-driven frontier research across all fields. It awards research grants to scientists and scholars from all over the world, both early-career and senior researchers, carrying out their ambitious research projects in all scientific disciplines in Europe. The session will cover the following: Understanding ERC Grants: Mr Benjamin Pelletier, Project Adviser – Scientific Officer, European Research Council Executive Agency Why I applied for the ERC Starting Grant and how I did it: Dr Anna de Jong, Senior Lecturer, School of Social & Environmental Sustainability, University of Glasgow Why I applied for the ERC Synergy Grant and how I did it: Prof. Volker Hessel, School of Chemical Engineering, The University of Adelaide ********************* Follow us on: Twitter:   / euraxess_ausnz   Facebook:   / euraxess.aus.nz   LinkedIn:   / euraxess-aus-nz   Sign up for free Membership: https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/worldwi... ********************* Speakers Profile: Mr Benjamin Pelletier: Project Adviser – Scientific Officer, European Research Council Executive Agency Benjamin’s core of expertise lies in the theories and practice of social economic and cultural rights. For 5 years in South East Asia, Benjamin investigated several challenges faced by local people such as the impact of a dam on the traditional way of life, or the use of lèse majeste laws to silence social movements or the expropriation of villagers to implant a factory. As a political analyst, Benjamin conducted substantive research on justice, rule of law and Human Rights for the Asian Development Bank, the UNDP, some governments, the EU delegation in Thailand and various NGOs. Before joining the ERC in 2018, as the executive director of the Forum Montesquieu, (which is a center of expertise and research in Law and Political Sciences coordinating more than 250 researchers and 500 volunteers), Benjamin participated in the creation of the first Law Clinic opened to the general public in France, and the creation of the first law clinic in Morocco and 2 others in Algeria and Tunisia. He acquired external funds to create and implement research projects within the legal and political innovation foresight centre. Dr Anna de Jong: Senior Lecturer - School of Social & Environmental Sustainability, University of Glasgow Anna is a Senior Lecturer in Tourism at the University of Glasgow. Prior to joining Glasgow, she held a Lectureship at the University of Surrey and a Postdoctoral position at the University of the Highlands and Islands. Anna is an interdisciplinary social scientist, with a background in human geography and tourism management. Her research takes focus with the relationships between tourism and place, guided by wider concerns of inequality and accessibility. Anna is the Director of Research, within the School of Social & Environmental Sustainability. Prof. Volker Hessel: Professor - School of Chemical Engineering, The University of Adelaide Volker studied chemistry at Mainz University (PhD in organic chemistry, 1993). In 1994 he entered the Institut für Mikrotechnik Mainz GmbH. In 2002, Volker was appointed Vice Director R&D at IMM and in 2007 as Director R&D. In 2005 and 2011,Volker was appointed as part-time and full professor at Eindhoven University of Technology, the Netherlands, respectively. In 2018, he was appointed at the University of Adelaide, Australia; Deputy Dean (Research) at ECMS Faculty until March 2022, and now professor in the School of Chemical Engineering. He was honorary professor at TU Darmstadt, Germany, and guest professor at Kunming University of Science and Technology, China. He received the AIChE Award “Excellence in Process Development Research” in 2007, the ERC Advanced Grant “Novel Process Windows” in 2010, the ERC Proof of Concept Grant in 2017, the IUPAC ThalesNano Prize in Flow Chemistry in 2016, and the FET OPEN Grant in 2016. He is CI in ARC Centre of Excellence, Plants for Space, an ARC Discovery Grant, and three ARC LIEF Grants. From 2014-2016, Volker was authority in the 35-man teamed Enquete Commission "Future of the Chemical Industry" in Germany’s State Parliament in Nordrhine-Westfalia.
