International Brain Research Organization (IBRO) provides funding for research fellowships, travel grants, symposia & workshops, and for scientists returning to their home countries. In addition to this, funding is also provided on a regional level.

InEurope Short Stay Grants fund visits to European institutions by researchers living and working within Europe, so that they can acquire new methods or specific techniques that are necessary for their work.

The aim of the program is to increase intra-European mobility of young researchers by providing grants for short, goal-directed exchanges within European laboratories.
