The courses are free of charge for all the attendees of the EuPA2015 Congress; moreover EuPA is granting 10 fellowships of 250€ each to support the attendance of young investigators to this event. These fellowships are available from the EuPA Educational Committee and they are dedicated to those students (e.g. Post-doc fellowship holders, PhD Student, etc.) interested in attending any of the Educational courses. Proposers who are members of an EuPA associated National Society have priority.

In addition, up to 30 fellowships are available funded by the COST Action BM1403 dedicated to PhD students and post-doctoral fellows interested in the protein crosslinking and protein HDX/covalent labeling tracks. Eligible recipients must belong to an EU country which is a member of COST Action BM1403 (http://www.cost.eu/COST_Actions/bmbs/Actions/BM1403). Requests with a brief CV and motivation letter should be formally addressed to the Chair of the BM1403 Cost Action, Prof. Frank Sobott by e-mail (frank.sobott@uantwerpen.be) by May 31^st.
