As an international community of cancer researchers, we stand united in support of our scientific colleagues in Ukraine, whose lives and work have been shattered by conflict. 

This page gives details of the support the EACR is able to offer for displaced researchers from Ukraine. We ask all cancer researchers to consider whether you are able to offer paid or unpaid opportunities in your lab. If you have a position to add, please contact us.

The opportunities listed on this page are reserved for researchers who were actively working in Ukraine until the Russian invasion on 24 February 2022. Due to the nature of the research positions in international labs, applicants need to speak English unless otherwise indicated.

2) EACR-funded short term placements in cancer research labs

This is a list of cancer research labs who are willing to host a researcher from Ukraine for a short term placement (minimum 3 months). The placement is likely to be unpaid, but the EACR can provide grant funding up to €5000 to cover any travel, accommodation and subsistence not funded by the host lab. 

This kind of short term placement could give a researcher from Ukraine time and safety in which to plan their next move or apply for other roles.
