About EMBC

The EMBC was established in 1970 to build on and consolidate the work that had been initiated by EMBO originally. It takes a pan-European (expanded to include some neighbouring countries) view of research and supports a very broad range of science through the programmes that bear the EMBO name. Of particular significance for science in Europe today is the fact that the EMBC includes not only the EU countries, but also many of the accession countries and those that have links with the EU to permit participation in the EU Framework Programmes. The relationship between EMBO and EMBC is very solid, and has worked effectively for more than 30 years. The EMBC monitors the actions that EMBO performs on its behalf, but does not interfere in the execution of the programmes. This arrangement works well based on the trust that has been well established between the scientific communities represented by EMBO and the member states acting through the EMBC.
