EMBO fellowsNet

EMBO fellowsNet is the web-based portal where our fellows, scientists who have benefited from funding and support for post-doctoral research from EMBO Long-Term Fellowships, can stay connected with the EMBO community. Once registered, you can receive news updates from EMBO, upload your contact information and publication records, and communicate with other EMBO Fellows.

The next EMBO Fellows Meeting is planned for 17 - 20 June 2010 and will take place at EMBL, Heidelberg.

The Fellows Meeting is open to Fellows who accepted or started their fellowship in 2007 and hold at least an 11-month-long fellowship. As in previous years, the programme includes a Science Communication Workshop .

There is no registration fee.

Preliminary agenda

Congratulations to Ralf Dahm (EMBO Fellow), winner of this year edition of EMBO Write Move Competition, with his story "The buzz of new beginnings: rigging up new lives abroad"!

And many thanks to all for the enthusiastic stories submitted.
They are all published on EMBO Life Sciences Mobility Portal.

EMBO Editors are available to visit your institute to speak about the editorial process and scientific publishing at EMBO.

The Editors are also happy to tour laboratories, discuss your work and  talk about scientific publishing as a career choice.

During my PhD, I was involved in humanitarian action schemes in West Africa aiming to improve life quality by working in coordination with locals structures (associations, authorities etc).  In 2001, I joined the laboratory of Rainer Pepperkok at EMBL with an EMBO Long-term Fellowship. In 2003, together with other enthusiast fellows I founded Adéquation Germany , an officially registered charity. The main focus of this charity is not to collect money but to recycle unwanted lab equipment which can then be sent to labs in Eastern Europe and Africa.
