Travel Awards

Each quarter, the Antibodies.com Travel Grant Program offers a travel grant up to $500 to help cover the cost of attending a conference. These travel grants are open to PhD candidates, lab managers, and post-docs from academic research institutions in the United States or Europe. The grant is intended to help cover the costs of registration, accommodation, and travel to a conference of choice.

Association for Women in Mathematics Mentoring Travel Grants helps junior women to develop a long-term working and mentoring relationship with a senior mathematician. This relationship should help the junior mathematician to establish her research program and eventually receive tenure. Each grant funds travel, accommodations, and other required expenses for an untenured woman mathematician to travel to an institute or a department to conduct research with a specified individual for one month. The applicant’s and mentor’s research must be in a field which is supported by the Division of Mathematical Sciences of the National Science Foundation.

Applicants must be women holding a doctorate (or equivalent) and with a work address in the United States.

Association for Women in Mathematics Travel Grants enable women mathematicians to attend conferences in their fields provides them a valuable opportunity to advance their research activities and their visibility in the research community. Having more women attend such meetings also increases the size of the pool from which speakers at subsequent meetings may be drawn and thus addresses the persistent problem of the absence of women speakers at some research conferences. The Mathematics Travel Grants provide full or partial support for travel and subsistence for a meeting or conference in the applicant’s field of specialization.

HCS Travel Awards in Imaging and Histochemistry seek to recognize projects and applicants that explore novel in situ tissue imaging and analytic techniques, including, but not limited to immunohistochemistry / immunofluorescence and in situ hybridization, or those that strongly incorporate these techniques. Demonstrating some connection to such techniques will be a critical factor in the evaluation of award applications. The HCS Travel Awards in Imaging and Histochemistry are designed to encourage members or potential new members to attend or speak at society sanctioned workshops, courses, meetings, or conferences. Awards will be available on a rolling basis and specific opportunities will be advertised on the society’s website. Awards will be available to members at three career levels: invited speaker, invited instructor, and travel award. Please note that award applications require a minimum review period of one month.
