With Advanced@UNIPI the University of Pisa supports researchers interested in submitting proposals to the ERC Advanced Grant 2024 call, which will open on May 29, 2024, with a deadline of August 29, 2024.
The recipients of the grant are researchers of any nationality who choose the University of Pisa as the host institution for their project proposal on the ERC-AdG 2024 call. It is not required to have an active contract with UNIPI.
The support will consist of a comprehensive and interactive review process on:
- CV and scientific profile of the PI;

This support will be provided by a consulting agency selected by the University of Pisa in collaboration with the Research Promotion and Project Design Unit.
Submission procedure
The application consists of:
- Letter of acknowledgment from the hosting Department (Attachment 1).
- CV of the PI + project idea (Attachment 2).
Candidates who have submitted a proposal in response to the ERC-AdG-2022 and ERC-AdG-2023 calls may replace Attachment 2 with Section B1 of the proposal.
