ProgrammesPrincipal Investigators with a main European Research Council grant that is ongoing or ended less than 12 months before 1 January of the call year are eligible to participate in an ERC Proof of Concept Grant. The ERC Proof of Concept Grants aim at facilitating exploration of the commercial and social innovation potential of ERC funded research and are therefore available only to PIs whose proposals draw substantially on their ERC funded research. The results of the 2023 Proof of Concept call (2nd cut-off 20 April 2023) were published. In total 66 ERC grant holders received a Proof of Concept grant including five researchers based at a Flemish host institution. More information on the Proof of Concept call results can be found in the press release of ERCEA.

Professor Inez Germeys leads the Center for Contextual Psychiatry at KU Leuven, which is a large multi-disciplinary research group focusing on the interaction between the person and the environment in the development of psychopathology. She has received a European Research Council (ERC) Consolidator grant (INTERACT) and Proof of Concept grant (IMPACT). With these grants professor Germeys and her team researched a new mobile self-management therapy for patients with a psychotic disorder. The Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in Daily Life (ACT-DL) was further developed for the clinical environment. In line with that the Horizon 2020 IMMERSE project aims to thoroughly evaluate strategies, processes, and outcomes of implementing a digital mobile mental health solution.
