Organizers of an EMBO Workshop or EMBO Practical Course can allocate funds to offset additional childcare costs incurred by participants or speakers when participating at an EMBO-funded meeting. Up to 1,000 euros are provided for each workshop or course in addition to the core funding awarded. Eligible costs include fees for a baby-sitter or childcare facility, travel costs for a caregiver, or travel costs for taking the child to the meeting. The selection is handled by the organizers of the meetings.
