ERC Statistics

Launch Rstudio Binder

About

An exploration and visualization of the participation of ERC member countries in FP8 using R.

Data

The European Research Council (ERC) provides country statistics freely available online. The numbers refer to both evaluated and granted projects submitted to the ERC. Here, the numbers are provided in CSV for analysis.

Data dictionary

|Variable |Class |Description | |:---------------|:---------|:---------------------------------| |iso2c |character |iso2c country code | |call_year |integer |2007 - 2020 | |funding_scheme |factor |StG, CoG, AdG, PoC, SyG | |research_domain |factor |LS, PE, SH | |research_panel |factor |LS1 - SH6 | |projects |factor |evaluated, granted | |n |integer |number of projects |

💡 The numbers of evaluated projects can be lower than the number granted projects because of researchers' mobility between countries during the time lag between evaluation and approval of projects.
