  "heading": "Pre-registration",
  "text": "Due to the bottom-up approach of the Ideas Specific Programme, the ERC expects a large number of proposals in all fields of research. To enable the ERC to provide the required resources and expertise for the ERC peer review evaluation process, a call may foresee a pre-registration.\nPre-registration may entail a statement of the intended subject matter and the envisaged research objectives of the proposal.\nWhere calls foresee a pre-registration, the potential applicant shall request before the pre-registration deadline the login and the password for the Electronic Proposal Submission Service IT system (currently EPSS, referred to as the ‘electronic submission system’ in the text), needed to submit a proposal. Deadline(s) for pre-registration may be set a few weeks in advance of the call deadline(s) for the submission of proposals. Pre-registration and submission are two different phases. If the call foresees a pre-registration but the applicant does not pre-register, the submission of a proposal by that applicant will not be accepted by the electronic submission system.\nWhere calls do not foresee a pre-registration, the potential applicant shall still register and request a password for the EPSS in order to be able to submit the proposal, before the call deadline.\nIn exceptional cases, the potential applicant may request permission from the ERCEA to submit on paper as provided by Annex A to this Decision.",
