EMBO


EMBO funds basic research in the (molecular) life sciences. The fellowship provides the travel costs for the fellow and his/her family. If the applicant is already at the receiving institute, travel is not paid. The stipend paid depends on the country/territory being visited, other sources of income and number of children under 18 years of age.

 

  • Short-Term Fellowships fund research exchanges of up to three months between laboratories in eligible countries. Awarded applicants can stay on their research visit for an additional three months (maximum), however, EMBO will not provide funding for this extended period. The aim is to facilitate valuable collaborations with research groups applying techniques that are unavailable in the applicant's laboratory. Short-Term Fellowships are not awarded for exchanges between two laboratories within the same country. Short-Term Fellowships are intended for joint research work rather than consultations. The fellowships cover travel plus subsistence of the fellow only and not of dependents.
    Rates for example: USA (= Non-EMBC Countries) = 69 Euro/day

 

  • The Postdoctoral Fellowships are awarded for a period of up to two years and support post-doctoral research visits to laboratories throughout Europe and the world. International exchange is a key feature in the application process.
    Rates for example: USA: 1 Year = 45.133 $, 2 Years = 49.646 $

 

  • EMBO Young Investigators receive a financial award of 15,000 euros in their second year. They can also apply for additional small grants of up to 10,000 euros per year.

 

  • EMBO Core Facility Fellowships fund international exchanges of up to one month between core research facilities in eligible countries.
