🤔 What They’d Do Differently?
Both grantees admitted they rushed their proposals.
Looking back, they wished they had started earlier and enjoyed shaping the ideas into a strong narrative. ⏳
❗Lesson: give yourself time. Don’t just race to the deadline.

🗣️Interview Preparation
The #ERC interview is tough, but preparation makes the difference.
Both grantees ran multiple mock interviews with scientists outside their fields.
By the real interview, they could answer questions calmly and clearly. 💬

⚖️ Balancing Ambition vs Feasibility
How do you balance ambition and feasibility in an #ERC project? 💡
→ Don’t dismiss ideas as “too much” too soon
→ Seek feedback to calibrate scope
→ Build multi-layered experiments so no single result makes or breaks the project

Developing the Idea✨
👉 Both #ERC winners had their big ideas well before applying.💡
They tested them on colleagues again and again: “Is this too ambitious?”
Feedback helped refine and sharpen the proposals.💬
Your network is an asset — use it.

🎓From Postdoc to PI
Is an #ERC just a continuation of postdoc work?
Not really. Both grantees said the ERC looks for bold projects, not incremental steps.
One took existing data and asked entirely new questions — that became the project.

📢 ERC Grant Webinar Recap 👇
🔴 The Beginning
💡 Neither of our ERC grantees originally planned to apply.
Both were nudged (read: urged) by senior mentors who saw their potential before they did.
💡Lesson: Sometimes you need someone else to push you. Listen to them.
