ESTRO also offers a number of mobility grants to ESTRO members, wishing to learn a specific technique or methodology important for their clinical practice or their research project. These "Technology Transfer Grants" (TTG) may be used for short visits (1 to 3 weeks) to another institute where the expertise exists.
The ESTRO TTG will cover all mobility costs (travel + accommodation) established on the basis of a realistic budget, but will not provide a salary. The average total amount will be about €1,500-2,000. The budget is to be submitted together with a recommendation letter from the department head and an invitation letter from the host institute.
Selection Criteria
These grants are meant for Clinicians, physicists, biologists, scientists and RTT’s, working or studying in Europe and being an ESTRO member.
