The ERC Consolidator Grants are designed to support excellent Principal Investigators at the career stage at which they may still be consolidating their own independent research team or programme. Principal Investigators must demonstrate the ground-breaking nature, ambition and feasibility of their research proposal. A competitive Consolidator Grant Principal Investigator should have already shown evidence of research independence. The Principal Investigators shall have successfully defended their first PhD at least 7 and up to 12 years prior to 1 January 2025. The eligibility period can be extended beyond 12 years in certain properly documented circumstances.
