Q: For ERC Grant schemes: Advanced Grants: Is there a page-limit or set format for the Ethical Issues Description?

A: Yes, there is a 2-page-limit for the B2 Ethical Issues Annex). If the answer to any of the questions in the Ethical Issues Table (in part B2) is YES, you must provide a brief explanation of the ethical issue involved and how it will be dealt with appropriately. Please also specify any authorization or permission you already have for the proposed work and include copies (the copies do not count towards the page limit). Please upload this Ethical Issues Annex and any related documents in the 'Extra Annexes Upload' section included in the EPSS tab 'Part B & Annexes'. Please see the Guide for Applicants for the funding scheme you are applying to and CORDIS http://cordis.europa.eu/fp7/ethics_en.html for further information on how to deal with Ethical Issues in your proposal.
