Ageing healthily: European scientists unlock the molecular secret behind bat longevity
Scientists led by ERC grantee Emma Teeling have identified part of the molecular mechanism that gives bat species Myotis their extraordinary long and healthy lifespans. The longest-lived bats can live over 41 years of age while weighing only 7g,…

From blue-sky research to market: New independent review praises ERC innovation initiative
On the whole, ERC-funded projects prompt innovation, but the study found that those backed by Proof of Concept grants are even more effective in this respect. A survey compared the performance of Proof of Concept grantees to a control group of ERC…

Helping corals resist climate change
Our oceans' beautiful coral reefs are in danger from overheating. However an ERC funded team is working underwater and above to help them survive. Watch our photostory to get a glimpse of their stunning work.

Bottom up climate change research
The increase of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere as a result of human activity is impacting the natural carbon cycle, modifying how the element travels between land and atmosphere. How will our future climate impact this exchange? How will…
