Dr. Themis Alissafi, New Ambassador for the ERC to Greece

Dr. Themis Alissafi was elected as the Ambassador for the European Research Council to Greece.

The European Research Council (ERC) and the Association of ERC Grantees (AERG) launched the new Ambassadors for the ERC network on 28 April 2025. This joint initiative aims to promote investment in frontier research and highlight the importance of research by explaining how it benefits the economy and society. 

The Ambassadors for the ERC will serve as influential advocates for frontier research in Europe, engaging with policymakers, the media, and local research communities to promote and safeguard its value. They will work together with the ERC National Contact Points (NCPs), who have a primary role in providing guidance, practical information and assistance to local researchers in their own language, on all aspects related to Horizon Europe.
