• intend to modify the genetic heritage of human beings which could make such changes heritable (with the exception of research relating to cancer treatment of the gonads, which may be financed), or
• intend to create human embryos solely for the purpose of research or for the purpose of stem cell procurement, including by means of somatic cell nuclear transfer.
• lead to the destruction of human embryos (for example, for obtaining stem cells) These activities are excluded from funding.

We confirm that for activities carried out outside the Union, the same activities would have been allowed in at least one EU Member State
