EMBO announced the selection of seven scientists as recipients of the 2011 EMBO Installation Grants. The grants will assist the researchers to relocate and set up laboratories in the Czech Republic, Poland, Estonia and Turkey.
A committee of EMBO Members selects the successful candidates for the high standard of their research.
The scientists receive 50,000 euros annually for three to five years from their host countries. This helps them to establish their research groups and themselves in the European scientific community.
Grantees are also integrated into the prestigious EMBO Young Investigator Program, which provides networking opportunities with some of Europe's best young group leaders and a range of career development programs.
With these newly elected grantees, the number of researchers funded by EMBO Installation Grants since the inception of the program in 2006 increases to 48. Three of the new grantees will move from the USA to establish research groups in Turkey, one moves from Germany to Poland, one from the UK to the Czech Republic, one from the USA to Estonia and one from the USA to Poland. Three of the seven scientists are women.
The awardees are Tolga Emre (Turkey), Ebru Erbay (Turkey), Nurhan Özlü (Turkey), Kvido Stříšovský (Czech Republic), Tambet Teesalu (Estonia), Bartosz Wilczyński (Poland) and Dorota Wloga (Poland).
The next application deadline for EMBO Installation Grants is 15 April 2012.
