Fellowships and Bursaries

EACR fellowships give opportunities for researchers to work in exciting new contexts across Europe. They support research on the basis of technical exchange including participation in workshops and courses. Meeting bursaries are also awarded to support young researchers’ attendance at EACR’s main scientific meeting.

Newsletter and e-news bulletins

Our Annual Newsletter is published in the spring and has reports on meetings, awards and fellowships, news from national society members, and other informative features. EACR members also receive weekly e-news bulletins containing valuable information about meetings and activities.
