EMBL Sabbatical Visitor Fellowships

EMBL offers support for external independent scientists to spend three to six months at one of its six sites, working with an EMBL group or team leader. The scheme supports scientific exchange and transfer of expertise across molecular biology and related research. Awards reimburse eligible additional costs, up to EUR 15,000. Applicants may be based anywhere, but must retain employment and salary from their home institution. The host submits the jointly prepared application through the linked Workday opportunity. This round opened on 1 September and closes on 9 October 2026.

Independent scientists, principal investigators, research team leaders and technical experts worldwide; continued home-institution employment and salary and an agreed EMBL host are required.
