Information about the capacity of ERC doimains for the realisation of item 2.a is published on the ARIS website. Approximate amount of funding for clinical studies is determined specifically for item 2.a, namely in point 5.1 of the Call. Information about the capacity of ERC domains for the realisation of items 2.b, 2.c and 2.d are published on the ARIS website. The approximate amount of funding for clinical studies and minimum funding for interdisciplinary studies is determined specifically for items 2.b, 2.c and 2.d, namely in point 5.1 of the Call. When applying for interdisciplinary projects, applicants must state which strategic objective of the Republic of Slovenia and the European Union their project proposal is following:
The strategic objectives, defined by the ministry responsible for science, are presented in the proposal Council Recommendation on a Pact for Research and Innovation in Europe (COM/2021/407), in the presentation of the European green transition at the European Commission website and in the report of the Joint Research Centre (JRC) "The twin green & digital transition: How sustainable digital technologies could enable a carbon-neutral EU by 2050". The research represents the scientific basis for technological solutions for the green transition and digitalisation, the impact of the green transition and digitalisation on the functioning of society and social activities, human health, and the protection of natural and cultural heritage. Information about the capacity of ERC domains for the realisation of item 2.e is published on the ARIS website. Approximate amount of funding for clinical studies is determined specifically for item 2.e, namely in point 5.2 of the Call. 3.3. Amount and share of (co-)financing 3.3.1. Amount of (co-)financing The ARIS will finance up to 100% of eligible project costs for basic projects in the basic and reduced amount (hereinafter: basic projects), post-doctoral basic projects and basic projects - AD Programme. The ARIS will finance up to 75% of eligible project costs for applied projects and post-doctoral applied projects. 3.3.2. Share of (co-)financing Basic projects in the basic amount or applied projects in the basic amount will
be (co-)financed in the approximate annual amount of €150,000. At the proposal
of the international panel, the project may be (co-)financed at the reduced
amount of €75,000 annually. Calculated in terms of effective project research
hours, this equates with approximately: Basic projects - AD Programme will be (co-)financed in the approximate
annual amount of €150,000. Calculated in terms of effective project research
hours, this equates with approximately: Post-doctoral basic projects will be (co-)financed in the scope of 1700 effective research hours annually (1 FTE) in Price Category B. Post-doctoral applied projects will be (co-)financed in the scope of 1275 effective research hours annually (0.75 FTE) in Price Category B. The annual volume of research hours at the price of full-time equivalent upon the selection shall be allocated to the selected project, meaning that the volume of effective hours of research work for the duration of the project for implementing citizen science is determined in the Call. The volume of (co-)financing is annually adjusted with the valid price of the full-time equivalent for an individual year. 3.3.3. (Co-)financing of an applied project The applicant of an applied project or post-doctoral applied project must ensure (co-)financing of the project in the amount of 25% of the eligible project costs by other interested users (hereinafter referred to as: a (co-)financer). The contract for (co)financing of the applied project between the applicant and the (co-)financer must be concluded by using the sample contract, which is available in an annex to the Call. When concluding a contract with ARIS, the applicant must submit the signed contract for (co-)financing of the applied project with uniform annual dynamics for the entire period of project implementation. The starting value for concluding a contract for (co-)financing of the applied project is three times the annual financial volume of the project from the Call. If the applicant does not attach the signed contract for (co-)financing of the applied project, the contract for (co-)financing of the project with ARIS shall not be concluded, regardless of whether the director's decision on the selection of applications, by which he or she decided that the application for the application project should be selected for (co-)financing, has already been issued. All project costs and revenues must be booked to a single cost centre. (Co-)financing can be in the form of money or by direct purchase from the (co-)financier's sources for the purchase of research equipment, which is recorded as a tangible fixed asset of the applicant. (Co-)financing “in kind” or in the form of work by employees of the (co-)financier is not permitted. The projects cannot be (co-)financed by research organisations that are entered into the records of scientific research activity operators with ARIS (hereinafter: RO Records), except for companies. A (co-)financer of an applied project may also be a co-implementer of the same applied project, not exceeding 10% of the total financial scope of the project. If the applicant is a (co-)financer of an applied project, the above mentioned limit does not apply to them. In the event of a reduction in the (co-)financing of the project by the (co-)financer, the applicant is obliged to state the objective circumstances that led to the reduction and to demonstrate that it could not have foreseen, prevented, eliminated or avoided this (e.g. proof of the bankruptcy of the (co-)financer, proof of the prohibition of the (co-)financer from carrying out their activities, proof of other initiated proceedings for the termination of activities, proof of filing a lawsuit, proof of initiated enforcement proceedings). In the event of a reduction in the (co-)financing of the project by the (co-)financer, the applicant may, in the event of objective circumstances, acquire a new (co-)financer for the share of eligible project costs in which the previous (co-)financer reduced the (co-)financing of the project, or the applicant may carry out (co-)financing for the share of eligible costs from their own funds, whereby neither the new (co-)financer nor the applicant may provide the relevant share of funds from public funding of scientific research activities. In the event that the (co-)financer reduces the (co-)financing of the project, ARIS will (co-)finance the project only in the estimated proportion of 75% of the eligible project costs or request a refund if the funds already paid out have exceeded ARIS' share of (co-)financing in accordance with the concluded contract on the implementation and (co-)financing of scientific research activities (hereinafter: contract for (co-)financing of the project), in relation to the total funds spent on the implementation of the project. In view of the number of effective research hours (co-)financed from the budget
of the Republic of Slovenia, the ARIS will, in accordance with the provisions of
the Decree on scientific research funding from the budget of the Republic of
Slovenia (Official Gazette of the RS, Nos. 35/22, 144/22 and 79/23),
(co-)finance an individual researcher in view of the ratio of employment options
for research, but no more than 1700 effective research hours per annum. The
minimum annual workload of a researcher per individual project is 34 effective
hours of research work. 4. Entities who are eligible for application to the Call The Call is open to research organisations entered into the RO database as well as private researchers entered into the register of private researchers, which are kept by the ARIS, and that meet the requirements set out in the Scientific Research and Innovation Activities Act and the General Act on Procedures for Financing, Co-financing, Evaluating and Monitoring the Implementation of Scientific Research Activities (hereinafter: the General Act).

7. Applying to the Call The applicant selects one ERC field in the application. In case of an interdisciplinary research, an additional/secondary ERC field is defined. On his or her application the applicant marks if the content of the proposed project is considered a trade secret according to the Trade Secrets Act (Official Gazette of the RS, No. 22/19). The assembly of a project group is an integral part of the application. Project groups from the application cannot be changed until the end of the year in which the implementation of the project started, unless their employment relationship with the applicant or contractor ends or in case of another similarly justified reason. Project group members, whose most important research achievements are listed on the application, must participate in the project group at all times, unless their employment relationship with the applicant or contractor ends or in case of another similarly justified reason. For a change due to another similarly justified reason, the applicant or contractor must submit an application to the ARIS. Applicants who cannot foresee which researchers will be involved in the implementation of the project when submitting the application (mainly foreign post-doctoral students who have not yet concluded relevant contracts), only list them as part of the project content. Joint project application based on the agreement with the Hungarian agency NKFIH and under the WEAVE agreement with the Austrian agency FWF, the Polish agency NCN, the Swiss agency SNSF, the Flemish agency FWO, the Croatian agency HRZZ, the Czech agency GAČR, the Luxembourg agency FNR, and the German agency DFG consists of a joint scientific description of the project, describing the scientific contributions of individual partners. A joint project application must have a common research question and a common research plan, and individual national/regional parts of the project must be closely related and complementary. The scientific contribution of each partner must be clearly visible. Cost estimates must be provided separately for each national part of the project and must follow the guidelines of the (co-)financing partner agency. Should the joint project be approved, the project parts will be (co-)financed by the ARIS and the partner agency(-ies) in accordance with their regulations. Clinical studies must demonstrate the participation of health/educational institutions in the amount of at least 30% of the research hours. The clinical study applicant must choose one of the listed ERC fields within the ERC domain “Life Sciences (LS)”. In the case of interdisciplinary research, this must be the primary field. For each project application where the applicant chooses to conduct research in the field of clinical medicine, the applicant must specifically justify that it is a clinically oriented project, and the justification will be verified and confirmed/rejected by the international panel as part of the assessment process. If the project is selected for (co-)financing in the annual financial scope of €75,000, the applicant may exclude or reduce the share carried out by the participating research organisations and must state this on the application for the Call – item 25 of the application form (indication of the share of participating research organisations).
8. Evaluation criteria and indicators The criteria and indicators for the evaluation of projects are set out in Articles 71 and 72 of the General Act:
Project applications are evaluated based on the General Act and the methodology in the filed of research according to the ERC classification, which project leaders indicate in the application form. The project applications are evaluated by two foreign reviewers. 10. Selection of applications Project applications with a total or individual grade that is lower than the limit set in the General Act and Methodology cannot be selected as (co-)financed applications. By majority decision, the international panel shall adopt the draft priority application list for (co-)financing, which the external expert panel forwards to the Agency's Scientific Council (hereinafter: ASC) for consideration. In the case of an equal number of points of two or more applications for basic projects, post-doctoral basic projects, and basic projects – AD Programme, the Panel shall adopt a decision on the selection of applications by taking into account the scores, project applications and the replies of the applicants to the individual reports of the reviewers in the case of a non-harmonised report. The application that has the greatest number of points for the “Scientific excellence of application” is ranked higher on the draft priority application list by the panel, than the application that has the greatest number of points for the “Scientific excellence of researchers” criterion, followed by the application that has the greatest number of points for the “Quality and efficiency of implementation” criterion. In the event that, after ranking the applications in accordance with the criterion from the previous sentence, there are still several applications that achieved the same number of points, the panel shall state their reasons for the ranking of an application on the priority list. In the case of an equal number of points of two or more applications for applied or post-doctoral applied projects, the panel shall adopt a decision on the selection of applications by taking into account the scores, project applications and the replies of the applicants to the individual reports of the reviewers in the case of a non-harmonised report. On the draft priority application list, they shall rank the application that has the greatest number of points in the “Scientific excellence of application” criterion higher than the application that has the greatest number of points in the “Social and economic impact” criterion, followed by the application that has the greatest number of points in the “Scientific excellence of researchers” criterion, and then followed by the application that has the greatest number of points in the “Quality and efficiency of implementation” criterion. In the event that, after ranking the applications in accordance with the criterion from the previous sentence, there are still several applications that achieve the same number of points, the panel shall state their reasons for the ranking of an application on the priority list. The ASC adopts the draft priority application list for (co-)financing and forwards it to the ARIS Director for a decision. The ARIS Director adopts the decision on the selection of applications, with which he or she decides if an application is selected for (co-)financing or not. In the selection of applications for (co-)financing registered on the basis of the agreement with the Hungarian agency NKFIH, the following applies:
In the selection of applications for (co-)financing registered on the basis of the WEAVE agreement with the Austrian agency FWF, the Polish agency NCN, the Swiss agency SNSF, the Flemish agency FWO, the Croatian agency HRZZ, the Czech agency GAČR, the Luxembourg agency FNR, and the German agency DFG, based on the agreement between the partner agencies, the following applies:
The following applies to the selection for (co-)financing of basic projects:
The following applies to the selection for (co-)financing of applied projects:
For selecting basic projects – AD Programme for (co-)financing the following applies:
The anticipated beginning of the (co-)financing of project implementation is 1 October 2025, depending on the funds available in the budget of the Republic of Slovenia and the ARIS financial plan, as well as other objective circumstances that may affect implementation of the Call. Any changes of the expected start date of the (co-)financing of project implementation will be communicated to the applicants while the Call is in progress. The selected applications are (co-)financed by the ARIS for up to three years, with the exception of post-doctoral research projects, which are (co-)financed for two years.
12. Conclusion of a contract for (co-)financing of the project The contract for (co-)financing of the project must be signed no later than
three months from the date of adopting the decision on the selection of the
application. If there is a delay in the start of (co-)financing, the contract
shall be signed no later than six months from the date of adopting the decision
on the selection of the application. 13. Legal remedies An applicant may appeal to the decision of the ARIS Director on the application selection within 15 days of receiving the decision. The Management Board of the ARIS issues a decision on the appeal. A filed appeal does not delay the signing of contracts with selected applicants. 14. Science communication The objective of scientific research is the progress and well-being of society as a whole, so it is important that the results of scientific research are properly explained to citizens and (political) decision-makers. It is important that scientific findings are interpreted and communicated by the researchers themselves, who best understand the significance of their scientific research and discoveries, and that they do so in an appropriate manner, so that their information is understandable and convincing to lay persons. The project must therefore also include communication activities through which the results of the individual project shall not only be properly presented to the public, but the (interested) public shall be provided with such insight into the research area addressed by the project that, in addition to being informed, their level of understanding shall also be increased. The latter is even more important when providing information to political decision-makers. For the proper implementation of science communication, it is important that researchers have the necessary communication skills and knowledge. The project must therefore include a Plan of communication activities (hereinafter: the Communication Plan), which must be submitted to ARIS within at least 6 months after the start of the project and must include various audiences. In the event of changes, the updated Plan of communication activities must be submitted in the interim and final reports. Communication activities may also include activities intended to train researchers in science communication, but not exclusively educational activities.
15. Open access to reviewed scientific publications and web access to information about the research project In accordance with Article 41 of the Scientific Research and Innovation Activities Act and Articles 2 and 3 of the Regulation on the implementation of scientific research work in accordance with the principles of open science (hereinafter: the Regulation) all peer-reviewed scientific publications resulting from the implementation of a research project, together with the associated research data and other research results, must be published in open access. In accordance with the first indent of paragraph 1 of Article 3 of the Regulation, open access is implemented in such a way that the machine-readable digital form of the published version of a scientific publication (VoR) or a peer-reviewed manuscript (AAM) accepted for publication is stored in a trustworthy repository for scientific publications. A trustworthy repository is a repository that is certified or a sectoral or institutional or other repository that researchers trust. A scientific publication must also contain information about the (co-)financer or (co-)financers and the project number in accordance with Article 82 of the General Act, as well as information about the share of co-financing from public sources in accordance with Article 1 of the Regulation. Open access costs ("APC" or "BPC" costs), including the costs of preparing scientific publications and other results of scientific research work, are eligible costs of scientific research activities. Authors of scientific publications or their employers, when rights are transferred to them, may transfer copyrights in scientific publications to third parties only on a non-exclusive basis. Authors of scientific publications or their employers, when rights are transferred to them, must, in accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 6 of the Regulation, publish scientific publications under an open license, for example CC BY, CC BY-SA or equivalent licenses. After the application is selected for (co-)financing, the applicant must create a website or subpage on their research organisation’s website dedicated to the project and enabling the dissemination of its results. The minimum requirements for the website content are:
Content included in the SICRIS system should be linked and need not be provided twice. The project presentation website must remain active for 5 years following the conclusion of the project. The implementer reports on the establishment of the website in the interim and final report on project results. In accordance with Article 4 of the Regulation, the project must include a Research Data Management Plan (hereinafter referred to as: the NRRP), which must be submitted to ARIS within at least 6 months after the start of the project implementation. In the event of changes, the updated NRRP must be submitted in the interim and final reports and published on the project website. The mandatory content of the NRRP is an annex of the Call. In open access to research data, in accordance with Article 4 of the Regulation, the "FAIR" principle must be taken into account, together with the principle that research data must be "open as much as possible and closed as much as necessary". Regarding the method and timeliness of storage and accessibility of research data and other research results in digital form, paragraphs 1 and 2 of Article 5 of the Regulation must be taken into account.
