Scientists can apply for funding to organise an EMBO Workshop. EMBO can contribute up to a maximum of 43,500,000 euros (33,500 euros of core funding plus 9,000 euros exclusively for travel grants and registration fee waivers, and 1,000 euros for childcare grants) per workshop.
EMBO supports the organisers by:
- Creating a dedicated workshop webpage, including registration and abstract submission forms
- Providing a poster and helping to advertise the meeting
- Offering funds for an EMBO Young Investigator Lecture, EMBO Policy Lecture or an EMBO Women in Science Lecture.
EMBO offers travel grants for each event. Participants of EMBO Workshops should apply directly to the organisers for travel grants.
Organisers are encouraged to experiment with hybrid or virtual conference formats in 2022 and 2023. An extra 10,000 euros will be provided if organizers chose a hybrid format to cover the additional cost incurred for providing the online options.
