WHO Expert & MSCA Fellow | +€500 000 in Competitive Grants | Creator of The Funding Formula™
MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO
Hey, I'm Dr Luria Founou!
Microbiologist. WHO Expert. MSCA Fellow.
Head of Research and Group Leader at CEDBCAM-RI, Cameroon.
For two years after my PhD, I applied. And I lost. And I applied again. And I lost again.
Then I cracked the system.
Within two years, I had secured over 500,000€ in competitive funding, from my home country, Cameroon. No Western degree. No famous institution. Just the system I had finally understood.
ERA is everything I learned the hard way, packaged so the next generation of African researchers does not have to repeat my two years of rejection.
TESTIMONIALS
Real African researchers. Real results.
"The value I gained from ERA goes well beyond the time I invested."
"ERA was an enriching and transformative experience. From the depth of content to the clarity of instruction, every module helped me grasp complex concepts and apply them practically. I feel more confident, better equipped, and motivated to apply what I learned in my research." Victorine Ghislaine Nzino Munongo (Senior Researcher · MINRESI · Cameroon)
"I received the MSCA Seal of Excellence within three months of completing ERA."
I used to feel stuck, doubting my abilities and unsure about my future. I struggled to tell my story and align my expertise with what funders wanted. ERA changed everything. Today, I have a clear vision, specific goals, and the confidence to apply for funding knowing I have what it takes. - Dr Isabelle N (Postdoc Fellow, South Africa)
"ERA didn't just save me time. It saved me five years of struggle and uncertainty."
Before ERA, I was lost after my degree, unsure of my research direction and convinced that new funding was out of reach. Opportunities felt abstract, almost impossible. Through this program, I learned exactly where and how to find the right grants, what to focus on, and how to take control of my career. I’m no longer stressed or blaming circumstances. Now, I’m confident that with practice and the right strategies, I can secure funding again and again. ERA gave me the power to move forward. Nelly Ornelle Onana (PhD Candidate, Cameroon)
"Writing major proposals used to feel overwhelming. Now I know exactly how to stand out, even in the most competitive calls."
Dr Luria Founou has been a guiding light for African researchers like me. Her mentorship taught me the value of humility, sharing, and seeking help skills that transformed how I approach grant writing and career planning. I believe in my unique potential and see my future as a world-class researcher with a lasting legacy. Alain Brice Tueche (PhD Candidate, Cameroon)
"My life changed forever. I know I can become an excellent researcher ."
"Before ERA, I had no clear vision or plan for my career. I struggled to understand academia and faced big challenges with scientific writing. Dr. Luria pushed me to discover my WHY and define my vision. Through the program, I wrote my first article and concept proposal. Now, I have a growth mindset, take initiative, and feel ready to achieve excellence as a young African researcher. My confidence has soared, and I’m proud of how far I’ve come." - Julie Lando (MSc Holder, Cameroon)
