Frontier Research in Denmark

The University of Copenhagen and the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences cordially invite the scientific community to join the Scientific Council of the European Research Council in celebrating Frontier Research in Denmark and the bright minds driving it forward.

This event offers a unique opportunity to engage with the ERC Scientific Council and explore "Danish Model" in frontier research.

By joining us, you will:

Hear from ERC grantees across disciplines and career stages as they share their
groundbreaking research and personal insights into their ERC journeys.

Gain insight and reflections from the ERC Vice-Presidents on current trends
and developments across the three domains, along with their personal perspectives as they near the end of their mandates.

Explore how Denmark’s approach to basic research translates into real-world impact - and the challenges it faces - through a discussion with the ERC President and leading figures of the Danish research ecosystem.

Alongside the plenary sessions, there will be informal opportunities to engage with members of the ERC Scientific Council, speakers, ERC Executive Agency representatives, and fellow participants during breaks.

For any questions or further information, please contact the organisers at ERC-CPH-2025@ku.dk.
