ERC Starting Grant - Challenging General Relativity
Thomas Sotiriou has been funded with € 1,375,226 for the proposal entitled "Challenging General Relativity". The grant will be used in order to put together an extended research group of young and more experienced researchers (students, postdocs, advanced postdocs) and to foster and support a wide network of international collaborations. This group aims to conduct cutting edge research on the limits of General Relativity as a theory for the gravitational interaction.

FQXi MiniGrant - Lorentz-violating gravity seminars
Thomas Sotiriou has received $2,000 from Silicon Valley Community Foundation through the FQXi MoniGrant scheme. The amount will be used as partial support for organizing a series of seminars on Lorentz- violating gravity.

FQXi Mini-Grant - Tabletop black hole experiment
Stefano Liberati has received $10,000 from Silicon Valley Community Foundation through the FQXi MiniGrant scheme. The amount will be used as partial support for the realization of a tabletop black hole experiment.

Marie Curie Career Integration Grant - The limit of General Relativity
Thomas Sotiriou has been funded with € 100,000 for the proposal entitled "The limits of General Relativity". The funds will provide partial support for research in various topics in gravity, such as alternative theories, black holes, compact stars, cosmology, quantum gravity theory and phenomenology, etc.
