Estonian Research Excellence Showcase – ERC Grants Across the Years

Scientific discoveries that push the world forward require not only brilliance of mind but also extensive funding. This exhibition, initiated by the Estonian Research Council, highlights the exceptional researchers from Estonia who have been awarded grants by the European Research Council (ERC). The distinguished, internationally recognised scientists whose work is displayed here have been selected to pursue high-risk research that has the potential to revolutionise their respective fields. Their projects are driven by complex and novel scientific questions that demand perseverance, vision, and deep commitment.

The exhibition in front of you continues to evolve as new ERC grants are awarded, mirroring the dynamic and ever-changing nature of science itself. Each new recipient contributes a fresh chapter to the great storybook of science, enriching both Estonian and global research landscapes.
