In response to the current events unfolding in the Ukraine, the IUBMB is offering Relocation Support for Displaced Trainees. The IUBMB will support graduate students and postdoctoral fellows displaced from their labs because of natural disasters, war, or other events beyond their control that interrupt their training. Funds will be provided to relocate to another laboratory in the IUBMB region to continue their training in the biomolecular sciences. The trainee should identify the host lab and use the IUBMB funds to relocate.
There are several institutions prepared to accept displaced students; some of these include:
- EMBO Solidarity list – A list of life scientists across Europe and beyond offering to host Ukrainian researchers in their labs
- #ScienceForUkraine
- Global Research Groups Supporting Ukrainian Scientists
Applications will be reviewed upon receipt with a decision within a week. Please review the guidelines before you apply.
