🌍 Europe's leading funding agency for basic research
🧪 Exploring the frontiers of science
🚀 Pushing the boundaries of knowledge
We’ve long known that a woman’s lifestyle and exposures during pregnancy can influence her child’s health. But what about men?
Oskar Karlsson and his team from Stockholm University reveal that, even before conception, a father’s environment – from chemical exposure to stress – can alter gene expression in ways that are passed down to future generations.
By revealing how a father’s past can shape his child’s future, the project doesn’t just advance biology and public health concerns – it also demands we rethink reproductive responsibility, from the lab to the living room.

Zoom in, researchers.
Breakthroughs don’t happen overnight. They start with curiosity - and the freedom to explore it.
Winning a grant from the European Research Council means the freedom to explore bold ideas, ask big questions and push the frontiers of knowledge.
For many researchers, it’s a moment they will never forget.
Interested in applying for a grant?
The ERC offers several types of grants for researchers at different stages of their careers:
👉 Starting Grants for early-career scientists
👉 Consolidator Grants for researchers building their own team
👉 Advanced Grants for established research leaders
👉 Synergy Grants bring together small groups of researchers to tackle ambitious problems
👉 Proof of Concept Grants explore the innovation potential of ERC-funded discoveries.

Can music reveal hidden signs of heart disease? 🎵🎵 For Prof. Elaine Chew at King's College London, the answer lies in the patterns she’s spent a lifetime studying. As a mathematician and pianist, Chew saw how algorithms could decode music’s emotional power.
Her research has revealed that music doesn’t just affect our emotions — it can physically influence how our hearts beat and how our blood flows. By tracking these subtle shifts, music could help detect early signs of heart problems or even calm stress-related conditions like high blood pressure.

From sunlight-powered electronics to next-generation solar cells, frontier research is opening new possibilities for the green transition ☀️
Inspired by photosynthesis in green leaves, Michael Grätzel pioneered solar technologies that can harvest even ambient indoor light — helping power devices such as e-readers, headphones and smartphones with reduced charging needs.
His research has also contributed to advances in photovoltaic technologies designed to be more adaptable, efficient and accessible for future energy systems.
His research is based at the Ecole Polytechnique Federale De Lausanne in Switzerland!

🌊 Who controls the science of the high seas? The new UN High Seas Treaty is a big win for ocean protection, but it also tells another story.
Alice Vadrot, Professor in International Relations and the Environment at the Universität Wien, followed the negotiations closely and found that science wasn’t just guiding decisions, it was part of the negotiations.
📊 Countries used data strategically
🌍 Not everyone had equal access to science
⚖️ A balance had to be struck between conservation and fairness
Power in global politics is closely tied to who produces and controls knowledge. In the end, science isn’t just about facts, it’s about influence.

On Europe Day, we're asking a question we think is worth sitting with: what happens when science is free to follow curiosity, without knowing where it will lead?
The answer, time and again, is that it leads somewhere important.
Researchers spend years exploring questions with no obvious application – from how AI reshapes warfare, to what ancient ice reveals about climate, to how policies build up over time.
None of these started with a guaranteed outcome. All of them produced knowledge that matters.
That is free science. And it is worth protecting.

Every year, around 3.2 million women are diagnosed with breast, ovarian or cervical cancers. Together, these cancers cause over 1.2 million deaths annually.
An ERC-funded project led by Claudia Allemani is tackling a crucial question: why survival for these cancers differ so dramatically around the world.
It provides the first truly global picture of cancer care pathways, based on data for more than 275 000 women, diagnosed between 2025 and 2018, across 39 countries.
🔷 The findings show that for ovarian cancer, fewer than 20% of women are diagnosed at an early stage worldwide, although the situation remains slightly worse for women in low-and middle income countries.
🔷 Access to surgery and treatments that align with international guidelines also varies widely, and older women are less likely to receive recommended care.
By identifying where and why care falls short, the project aims to guide policymakers and help prevent avoidable deaths worldwide.
“Optimal treatment for early-stage tumours is more accessible in most countries. Efforts to promote early detection should continue,” says Claudia Allemani, based at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in the UK.
Co-author Veronica Di Carlo refers to international clinical guidelines, stressing “women everywhere need to be able to discuss their treatment with medical professionals, in order to access the best available options according to recommended guidelines.”

🌍 The biggest challenges we face can’t be solved alone. From climate change to global health and digital security, progress depends on cooperation across borders, yet collaboration is under pressure.
In the new #ERCMagazine, ERC President Maria Leptin discusses why science diplomacy matters and how science can help bridge divides.
She highlights three key ideas:
🔸 Knowledge as a global common
🔸 Science as a tool for diplomacy
🔸 Inclusive scientific research systems
By supporting curiosity-driven research, the ERC helps sustain open international collaboration.
📖 Read the editorial in the latest ERC Magazine: Check the link in bio
🔬 The quiet diplomacy of science. While headlines focus on political tensions, another kind of diplomacy is happening: researchers collaborating across borders, data shaping international agreements, and evidence bridging ideological divides.
The new ERC Magazine explores how research is reshaping global cooperation, featuring:
💡 How science strengthens multilateral systems
🌊 What really happens inside ocean biodiversity negotiations
⚖️ Why evidence matters in constitutional debates
💻 The diplomatic challenges of emerging technologies
🧪 What history can teach us about science diplomacy today
🌍 How ERC Synergy Grants connect curiosity-driven research to real-world policy challenges
As ERC President Maria Leptin puts it:
💬 'We don’t ask our researchers to be diplomats - yet their excellent science naturally feeds into global policy.'
Meet ERC grantee Themis Alissafi, who serves as an ambassador for the ERC in Greece. She is advancing research on how the immune system is regulated, helping us better understand inflammation and disease.
She also leads her own research group at the Biomedical Research Foundation of the Academy of Athens and is Assistant Professor at NKUA, contributing to cutting-edge immunology research in Greece and beyond.
