Selected ERC synergy grant

We are proud to be one of the selected highlights in the 2022 ERC synergy grants

A team of researchers aims to understand the neural basis of people's ability to process space geometry along the sense of space ownership, utilities and social hierarchies, leading to the perception of territoriality. The team coordinated by Prof. Dr. Valery Grinevich (Central Institute of Mental Health) is composed by his group and the labs led by Angela Sirigu (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique CNRS/France), Dori Derdikman (Technion – Israel Institute of Technology/Israel), and David Omer (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem/Israel). Their common research project has now received major grants from the European Research Council (ERC), namely synergy ERC grant (10 Mio Euros for 6 years), to address this challenging multidisciplinary research problem.
