Until the end of 2024, life scientists in or going to Croatia, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Poland, Slovenia and Türkiye can apply for the following schemes and support offerings:
Open Access publication
EMBO is waiving the Article Processing Charge (APC) for Open Access publication in the EMBO Press journals (The EMBO Journal, EMBO Reports, EMBO Molecular Medicine, Molecular Systems Biology) for scientists working in one of the eleven countries that join the initiative increasing participation in the EMBO Programmes provided they are not covered by a Springer Nature Open Access Agreement and do not have scientific publishing support or alternative funding available. Eligible scientists will be asked to sign a declaration regarding lack of publishing funds and will be reimbursed for pre-paid charges to avoid delays to the publication process. Scientists in other countries unable to meet the publication charges can apply for a discount or waiver via a link provided upon submission.
Grants for participation atEMBO Courses & Workshops
Researchers at any career stage and from any discipline in the life sciences can apply for a grant of up to 700 euros to cover registration fees, travel and accommodation for participation in an EMBO Course or Workshop.
The selection of grantees is handled directly by the organizer. For a list of all upcoming EMBO Courses & Workshops, please see the events calendar. For each event, you will find a link to the corresponding website.
The schemes and support offerings are funded with means from EMBC.
