Travel Funding
|
There is a small amount of funding available to support travel for conference attendees. These will likely be subsidies which cover part, but not all, of recipients travel costs and will be awarded at the discretion of the workshop co-chairs. Unfortunately we are not able to provide travel reimbursements to all applicants.
Decisions regarding disbursement of funds will be made based on need and a number of other factors (to ensure broad representation at the workshop).
Please provide a description of other funding available to cover your travel costs in the box on the form. Please note the application date falls after the early bird registration expires |
