Abstract
European Research Council (ERC) secretary-general Donald Dingwell visited South Africa in March to promote its grant schemes, which are open to top researchers from any discipline and of any nationality who are prepared - in the event of being funded - to base their research programme at a European institution, and spend at least 50% of their time there. But Dingwell emphasises that while applicants need to find a European institution prepared to host them, they do not have to have a post there, as salary costs can be included in the grant. The ERC is part of the EU's seventh research framework programme and has a total budget of 7.5 billion for 2007-2013.
