ESTROMobility Grants

Every year ESTRO offers a number of mobility grants (previously known as Technology Transfer Grants or TTGs). These grants are made available to radiation oncology professionals eager to visit another institute to learn about or gain experience with a technique, equipment or its application that is not easily available in their own institute and which would be useful to them and their department in future studies or clinical treatments. There are two application deadlines per year (spring and autumn) and dates are announced on the ESTRO website, as well as by ESTRO Flash reminders, social media and the ESTRO Newsletter. 50-70% of the applications are granted. Deadlines: 31 May and 31 October 2017 All applications should be addressed to grants@estro.org
