10 YEARS OF EXCELLENT IDEAS

In March 2017 the ERC will celebrate its 10th anniversary. In 10 years only it has become a brand

of scientific excellence and a recognised success story for the European Union: thousands of

research leaders and teams supported, almost 100 000 articles featuring ERC projects in

international scientific journals, hundreds of breakthroughs and discoveries that are opening new

horizons to tackle medical, industrial and societal challenges, 6 Nobel prizes, that went to

recipients of European Research Council grants.

On this occasion a conference and networking event entitled “10 years of excellent ideas” is

organized by the Technology Centre of the Czech Academy of Sciences on 15 March in Prague.

The event is hosted by the Charles University.
