Mapping of Excellence Based on the ERC Panel
of Application & the Field of Research of ERC
Grantees in Greece
The ERC supports investigator-driven frontier research through a competitive review process greatly recognized
and highly respected by the entire scientific community, based on the sole criterion of scientific excellence. In
this sense, the ERC does not only support and strength European leading research institutions but also excellent
research teams in smaller institutions facilitating the emergence of new centres or research units of excellence
all over Europe.
The applications to the ERC calls must be submitted to the appropriate primary ERC panel (i.e. the panel which
covers the main scientific areas of the research proposed).
(18)
of the ERC Grants
proposals is in the hands of 25 peer review evaluation panels, also called ERC panels, covering all fields of
science, engineering and scholarship. For operational reasons the panels are subdivided into 3 main research
domains (the Physical Sciences & Engineering domain, the Life Sciences domain and the Social Sciences &
Humanities domain) that have 10, 9 & 6 panels respectively. The panel chair and members are high-level scien-
tists and/or scholars and make recommendations for funding either autonomously or based on the feedback of
external specialists who are not on the panel – the remote referees.
