Support for Young Scientists of our Constituent Societies

Since its earliest days, FEBS has had a strong emphasis on promoting the training of young scientists during their PhD studies and also during the post-doctoral stages of research careers. Scientists at an early career stage who are members of the Constituent Societies of FEBS are eligible to apply for:

• a range of research Fellowships (Short-Term and Summer Fellowships, and Collaborative Developmental Scholarships)
• Youth Travel Fund grants to support costs for participation in FEBS Advanced Courses
• YSF grants to support costs for participation in the FEBS Young Scientists’ Forum and the ensuing annual Congress
• bursaries to support participation in the FEBS Congress

In addition, early-career group leaders may be eligible to apply for FEBS Excellence Awards.

Most of these schemes are aimed at scientists working within the FEBS area; please see the relevant sections of the FEBS website for full details.
