ERC Starting Grant to the Czech Republic

Project "Long-term woodland dynamics in Central Europe: from estimations to a realistic model" was selected for funding under the ERC Starting Grant scheme. Dr. Péter Szabó from the Institue of Botany of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic was awarded this prestigious grant as the only proposer from the Czech Republic.

The ERC is supporting some 480 early-career researchers over the coming five years with grants worth up to €2 million each. In this fourth ERC Starting Grant competition, just over €670 million is allocated to top talent to carry out their pioneering research in any domain throughout Europe.
