In the frame of the EU NEPHEWS programme, full travel reimbursement (tickets up to € 500, DESY Hostel and daily allowance) for up to two users coming from one of the prioritized countries Estonia, Finland, Greece, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia or Ukraine can be covered. This applies to proposals where the leader is affiliated with one of the prioritized countries and with the majority of beamtime participants coming from these countries.
The application for reimbursement has to be submitted by the Principal Investigator of the proposal before the experiment via DOOR.
After application, the PI will receive an approval of the request by email with detailed information about the persons and duration accepted for reimbursement.
Additional participants of the experiment have to cover their expenses themselves.
Please note that each participant has to book a room in the DESY Hostel as soon as possible to ensure that a room is available.
Please have a look at the NEPHEWS webpage for additional information, e.g. on training for Early Stage Researchers and twinning programme for New Users
