Details

Note you must register before you can submit a grant application, however payment of registration fees can be done at a later stage should this be necessary.

Please indicate the exact level of financial assistance (full or partial) that you would require in order to attend the meeting.

Note if you are awarded a grant this will include a free registration at the meeting; thus, it is not necessary to include this in your financial breakdown. The breakdown should include travel costs plus accommodation and expenses that you expect to incur. In general, the organising committee intends to meet the needs of those who will be able to contribute to the meeting in the most able/effective manner, while maximising the number of potential delegates. We therefore cannot guarantee full funding, but hope to be able to make a substantial contribution.
