The quote in my post about funding can no longer happen. The EU only funds research at EU universities, and UK universities aren't that any more.

- Brakenshire 5y agoThis isn't true, you don't have to be a member of the EU to be part of the Horizon programme, which is the EU's science funding mechanism. Membership of Horizon was part of the Brexit deal for the UK, although it seems to be uncertain now as part of the wider disputes.
- SassyThrowaway 5y agoHistorically, Israeli computer scientists have been able to apply and win ERC grants. That said, I have not checked if anything has changed for the UK in this regard, hence why I am curious.

- kergonath 5y agoAFAIK, unless this changed British scientists can apply to Horizon Europe funding, which includes ERC grants. However, there is some uncertainty as this is related to the trade and cooperation agreement, which looks a bit shaky right now. One of the problem was that the British government does not keep its word, so people are wary of putting British colleagues only for their funding to get pulled at the last minute because lord Frost wants to annoy the EU.
