Since the European Research Council (ERC) launched in 2007, many innovative and ambitious projects by EMBL scientists have been awarded financial support by the ERC.
The ERC promotes frontier research by outstanding scientists and selects projects based solely on scientific excellence.
During their time at EMBL, the following scientists have been awarded funding across the three ERC core grant schemes: starting, consolidator and advanced grants.
Deciphering Cis-Regulatory Principles of Transcriptional regulation: Combining large-scale genetics and genomics to dissect functional principles of genome regulation during embryonic development
Dissecting quantitative traits and their underlying genetic interactions via systematic genome editing
Collective signaling oscillations in embryonic patterning – revealing underlying principles
Quantitative Investigation of Interspecies Differences in Developmental Tempo
Relationship of Somatic Structural Variation Mosaicism to Aging and Disease Phenotypes
Development of advanced optical tools for studying cellular mechanics at high spatial and temporal resolution
Mechanistic models of leukemia-niche interaction using multimodal single-cell profiling
Functional and structural studies of the U12-dependent splicing in human cells
Development of novel 3D vascularized cardiac models to investigate Coronary Microvascular Disease
Gut microbiota drug biotransformation as a tool to unravel the mechanisms of metabolic microbiota-host interactions
Single-Cell Metabolomics for Drug Discovery and Development
EMBL has a long-standing tradition of scientific excellence that builds on highly interactive research Units and takes pride in the level of collaborative work engaged in by its Groups and Teams, involving both EMBL-internal and external collaborators.
