These pages are in the process of expansion as more ideas are gathered. Please add your suggestions by e-mailing fellowsnet@embo.org Where are they now? A survey of the career possibilities for young scientists in the life sciences.- Text: Andrew Moore & Holger Breithaupt.

The Fellows Network is an initiative designed to maintain close contacts between fellows throughout their fellowships, and we hope, promote enduring friendships and professional collaboration. The annual Fellows Meetings have proved very successful, and now include a media workshop. The network provides not only the opportunity for fellows to get to know each other and exchange ideas, but is increasingly providing free benefits; stay tuned for more!

If you are nearing the end of your EMBO fellowship (or are thinking ahead), and are looking for sources of funding, the following links may be of interest. You might also find a fellow in the Fellows Directory who is willing to give you information that will help you find that next grant or fellowship.
