Congratulations to Alexandra Carpentier on Her ERC Consolidator Grant

We are pleased to congratulate our PI Alexandra Carpentier on being awarded a highly competitive ERC Consolidator Grant for her project

“Statistical Optimality and Computational Efficiency: batch and sequential unsupervised learning under additional structure and sampling constraints.”

This grant represents a significant recognition of Alexandra’s research and her contributions to the field of statistical learning. The ERC Consolidator Grant supports mid-career researchers in advancing ambitious projects and strengthening their independent research profiles.

Her award comes as part of a particularly competitive call. In 2025, the European Research Council selected 349 researchers from more than 3,100 applications, reflecting a 35 percent increase in submissions compared with the previous round. Funded through the EU’s Horizon Europe programme, the grants support frontier research across 25 countries and span a broad range of scientific disciplines.

You can find the press release of the ERC here.

We are delighted to see Alexandra’s work receive this recognition and look forward to the progress and insights that her project will generate.
