✓Build directly on your 2025 ERC Advanced Grant feedback, the simplified dossier reuses prior submission documents, so focus improvement effort on the specific weaknesses identified in the review.
✓Clarify the concrete next steps for your resubmission: which reviewer comments drive your revisions, and how will the 24-month funding accelerate readiness for ERC Consolidator or Advanced in 2027 or 2028.
✓Submit in French if your institution has no English-language research administration; ANR expects proposals in French for this call, and clarity in your working language matters.
