TRAVEL AWARDS

A limited number of travel awards will be granted based on the program committee's review of submitted abstracts, with an emphasis on promoting diversity across countries and labs. If you wish to be considered for a travel award, please indicate this during the abstract submission process. To be eligible for a travel award, applicants must meet the following requirements:

1. Be a PhD student or a postdoc within two years of their PhD defense. Award recipients will be required to provide proof of enrollment or a letter from their supervisor.

2. Be the presenting author of the submitted abstract.

3. Attend the conference in person. 

The number of available travel awards depends on the final conference budget. Travel awards will be issued as lump-sum payments, with the amount based on travel distance. These grants are intended to help offset the costs of attending the conference, but are not expected to cover all expenses. Awards will be handed out after the conference.
