The following information relates specifically to travel grants

The amount of the award will be based on:
  • Significance of the travel
  • Transportation and associated costs
This award will normally provide only a portion of the total travel expenses.
  • Evidence of partial support from other sources is highly desirable

Travel grants only fund travel to international conferences
  • Must be giving a talk or chairing a session
  • Other travel to workshops or talks will not be funded
Documented evidence of prospective participation is required. Final decision based on:
  • The impact of the conference/meeting
