To apply please submit the following documents:

  • A brief letter of application 
  • A current CV

In order to receive the travel grant it is mandatory to present the paper at the conference in person. Awardees will receive remuneration during the Awards Ceremony at the Annual Meeting. Failure to present the paper in person at the annual meeting shall result in the withdrawal of the grant.
