EMBO Solidarity Grants
03. 01. 2023
EMBO has launched the EMBO Solidarity Grants to support scientists who have been displaced by recent armed conflicts, such as the war on Ukraine. The EMBO Solidarity Grants provide one-year stipends for researchers to start, continue or finish their PhD thesis, for post-doctoral researchers and for research stays by scientists at the professorial and group leader level.
The work has to be carried out in EMBC Member States with Increasing Participation Status (Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Poland, Slovenia, and Turkey). Fellows can claim support for incurred childcare costs up to the amount of 2,500 euros per grant year and per child.
Eligibility
Applicants must be doing research in one of the EMBO subject areas. Medical scientists or scientists working in fields related to general EMBO subject areas are eligible to apply.
Applicants must be registered at a university in the country with armed conflict, e.g., a Ukrainian university or research institute and must have proof of refugee status.
Applicants who are already working in the host laboratory must have started working there after the war started.
Application
Applications are only accepted via the online application system. The application system will open on the 5th of January 2023.
The deadline for applications is 15 February 2023.
