How to apply?

Access to Research Infrastructures

Access is provided free of charge and the financial support offered covers subsistence and travel for periods up to six months  at any one of Institutes. Access provided will cover all infrastructural logistical, technical and scientific support that is normally provided to external users of the facility.

Applications may be made by researchers who are conducting research inside the member states of the European Union plus Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Iceland, Israel, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Romania, Slovenia and Slovakia, but outside the country in which the facility is situated. Nationals who wish to work at facilities inside their own country cannot apply.

Applications are reviewed by an independent peer review procedure and are selected on the basis of scientific merit.

Candidates to the EuroFlam Access programme must complete the application form and return it to the Programme Manager of the Institute chosen (see below).
