We know very little, and yet it is astonishing that we know so much, and still more astonishing that so little knowledge can give us so much power, said philosopher. In this podcast, we talk to scientists and scholars, explorers and discoverers who push back the frontiers of knowledge. Occasionally, you’ll hear also from experts in science communication who share their secrets of how to make the important interesting. And don’t be surprised sometimes to get a useful tip on how to obtain our coveted grants.

The European Research Council, set up by the European Union in 2007, is the premier European funding organisation for excellent frontier research. It funds creative researchers of any nationality and age, to run projects based across Europe. More about the ERC: https://erc.europa.eu/
