Overview

The FEBS Fellowships programme began in 1979, and became a highly competitive and respected programme for early-stage researchers thanks to rigorous selection methods and the packages offered. Most of its schemes over the years have supported graduate students and early-career researchers in the molecular life sciences in the FEBS area to move to and carry out a period of research in a lab in a different FEBS country, thus broadening their experience and training, giving access to additional research techniques and expertise, and facilitating international collaboration.

FELLOWSHIP TYPES

FEBS currently offers Short-Term Fellowships, Summer Fellowships, Collaborative Developmental Scholarships and Ukrainian Short-term Fellowships. With the launch of the new FEBS Excellence Award scheme in 2021, the previous FEBS Long-Term Fellowships scheme is now closed to new applications.

  • Short-Term Fellowships are for scientists who have obtained their PhD degree within the past six years, and PhD students who have at least one published paper as a main author in an international scientific journal. Apply any time.
  • Summer Fellowships are for PhD students and Master’s students. Apply by 1 May each year (the call normally opens in February).
  • Collaborative Developmental Scholarships are for PhD students or early/mid-career PhD holders in certain disadvantaged FEBS countries. Apply any time.
  • Ukrainian Short-Term Fellowships are for active molecular life scientists from Ukraine who have a PhD. Apply any time.

All FEBS Fellowships are stipends for researchers studying or working in a FEBS country and wishing to move to a different country in the FEBS area for the duration of the Fellowship. Candidates for Short-Term Fellowships and Collaborative Developmental Scholarships also need to be a member of one of the FEBS Constituent Societies. The research stay is arranged by the applicant in collaboration with the host lab.

Description of Ideal Candidate

Our fellowships and scholarships are intended to allow members of our Constituent Societies working in a FEBS country to work in a laboratory in another FEBS country or, in the case of Return-To-Europe Fellowships, to again work in a FEBS country. Because of their young age, applicants for a Summer Fellowship need not be members of a FEBS Constituent Society. For information on our Constituent Societies, go to the Our Members section of the website.
