14 of the 302 winners of the 2015 Consolidator Grant competition are Israeli researchers, the European Research Council (ERC) announced on 12 February 2016. This puts Israel in seventh place overall. The total funding awarded to the winning Israeli researchers is approximately 28 million euros.
Set up in 2007 by the European Commission, the ERC is the first European funding organisation for excellent frontier research. It is considered the ‘Champions’ League of science’ as every year it selects and funds the very best individual scientists to run five-year projects in Europe. Competitions are open to researchers of any nationality, age or scientific area, including Humanities and Social Sciences, hosted in a university or research centre based in the EU or in one of the countries associated to ‘Horizon 2020‘.
