The ERC dashboard is an interactive tool that features data on ERC funded projects and evaluated proposals.
The tool allows users to access project details with the help of filters, to generate statistics and to export data in different formats.
The ERC is composed of an independent Scientific Council and an Executive Agency.
The Scientific Council governs the ERC and is responsible for setting the ERC's scientific strategy.
It consists of eminent scientists and scholars.
The ERC Executive Agency (ERCEA) implements the ERC strategy as set by the Scientific Council and oversees the day-to-day grant administration.
