RadioNet Funding

Some funds are available from the European Union FP6 programme RadioNet to support travel and subsistence for the Workshop on Simulations for ALMA. These are administered by ESO.

People wishing to use this budget must apply for approval in advance. This programme is intended primarily for those working at institutes in the EU, but others may be supported if a special case can be made.

Applying for funding

To apply for funding please fill out the information requested in the form below and send it to alma_admin@eso.org
