Janine Stubbs has been awarded a prestigious long-term post-doc fellowship from the European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) for two years. EMBO is sponsored by twentyfive governments with it’s headquarters in Heidelberg, Germany. EMBO has approximately 1200 members in Europe and 100 associate members worldwide. The organization is involved in the publication of scientific work, awards a number of different fellowships, and runs scientific courses and workshops.
Established in 1966,the Fellowships Programme has gained an excellent reputation due to its rigorous selection process. The success of the Programme is due to the excellent involvement from the Fellowship Committee, EMBO members and young investigators who volunteer each year to assess candidates and proposals. Through the international exchange of persons, knowledge and skills in life science research, a new network of scientists has been formed and the EMBO family expanded.
