EMS has designed several ways in which the society supports the organisation of microscopy related events at the European continent. Next to the well-defined involvement in the organisation of the quadrennial European Microscopy Congresses (EMC series, successor of EUREM) and the explicit support of the EMS extensions EMS also supports local microscopy related meetings, schools, courses etc.. At present this support includes financial sponsoring to cover part of the costs of two invited lecturers, assistance in electronic distribution of information about the meeting to the extended EMS membership, etc...

Eligibility criteria, the procedure for requesting EMS support etc. are given on a separate page.
