The first set of FEBS Advanced Courses for 2027 has been approved (from Round 1 of the 2027 call for applications). They include lecture courses (some co-funded with EMBO), workshops, and combined practical/lecture courses. More details will be added soon, but we wanted to annouce them now so you can reserve the dates. More courses for 2027 will be approved later this year, from Round 2 of the 2027 call, which has a deadline for course organizers of 1 September 2026. Visit the Advanced Courses calendar for the remaining courses in 2026.
