The PerMedCoE project is one of the featured sponsors of the EMBO Workshop Computational models of life: From molecular biology to digital twins. To encourage the diversity and equality of the event, PerMedCoE is offering grants to boost women’s representation at the event.These grants will take the form of registration fee-waivers and travel grants that will encourage physical attendance to this event.
PerMedCoE is seeking to build a more collaborative, supportive, equal and excellent scientific community by highly encouraging applications from women and underrepresented groups.
Note: We recommend all grant applicants to actively pursue other sources of funding as the number of grants are limited and the process is highly competitive. Please carefully consider the eligibility criteria and the application instructions.
