On July 27, 2018, the European Research Council published the list with the 37 French young researchers who obtained the 2018 Starting Grants. Five of them belong to PSL.
The ERC Starting Grants are awarded to talented early-career scientists (with 2-7 years of experience since completion of PhD) who have already produced excellent supervised work, are ready to work independently and show potential to be research leaders. Starting Grants may be awarded up to € 1.5 million for a period of 5 years.
