Courses & Conferences Programme

New name: EMBO Courses & Conferences

From 1 December 2026, EMBO Courses & Workshops will be renamed EMBO Courses & Conferences, to better reflect that EMBO Workshops are scientific conferences. Only the name changes: the meeting format and application requirements stay the same. The new name applies to meetings taking place from 2028 onwards. Meetings already funded keep their current name.

The Courses & Conferences Programme stimulates exchanges of the latest scientific knowledge and offers training in new techniques. The programme funds conferences, practical courses and lectures courses. It also assists organizers in promoting the events and creating webpages with a registration and abstract submission system. Furthermore, it provides lecture, travel and childcare grants.
