2 March 2023 – In an effort to support researchers affected by the earthquake that devastated areas of Türkiye and Syria, EMBO has set up a platform for scientists to share their offers of support. EMBO community members suggested that EMBO provide this platform to enable affected scientists to connect with those offering assistance during this challenging time. Support may include employment opportunities, short- or long-term accommodation, donations of equipment or other ways to help. Those seeking assistance may reach out directly to individuals or institutions offering support, using the contact information provided. If you are able to help those in need, please consider adding your offer to the list.
