Shimura/Mattaj Award (Support for travel expenses for visiting EMBL)

The program provides NIBB researchers participating in the conference or the training course at EMBL and working on collaborative research at EMBL with travel and living expenses. The program also supports expenses incurred during their stay in Europe for NIBB researchers who are visiting EMBL. This program, the Shimura Award, is named after Dr. Shimura, President of NINS. The Mattaji Award is the same support program, the name is used due to receiving support from Dr. Mattaj, Director General of EMBL.
