An agreement will let postdocs and early-career researchers from Singapore and Europe apply for training funds in each other's regions. Under the three-year pact, which was announced on 13 October and aims to stimulate collaboration, Singaporean scientists can seek European Molecular Biology Organization (EMBO) fellowships and grants and undertake EMBO training courses and activities. Fellowships will be available to European scientists wishing to work in Singapore. The pact is between EMBO, the European Molecular Biology Conference and the Singaporean government.
