Philosopher Alyssa Ney, neuroimmunologist Martin Kerschensteiner, and chemist Thomas Carell have each been awarded an Advanced Grant by the European Research Council (ERC). The funding of up to 2.5 million euros supports highly innovative research projects that go beyond the current state of research and forge ahead into new research territories.
Prof. Dr. Matthias Tschöp, President of LMU, congratulates: "Today we really have reason to celebrate: Our university has secured three new ERC Advanced Grants at once! This is fantastic news and a great recognition of the outstanding research that is conducted here every day. My heartfelt congratulations go to Professor Alyssa Ney, Professor Thomas Carell, and Professor Martin Kerschensteiner, and their teams. With their ideas, creativity, and dedication, they contribute to us being at the forefront of science, making our university internationally visible, and continually exploring new interdisciplinary paths."
