Grants for participation

ISBE Grants for participants from economically less developed countries

ISBE supports participants from economically less developed countries with a total of 5000 euros. This grant is used only for covering the registration fees (i.e. participants should be able to pay their own travelling and accommodation costs). We have not strictly classified the eligible countries, but obviously support is not granted for participants from the current EU-countries, North America and their equivalents.

To apply the grant, applicants should send
- curriculum vitae (degrees, positions, publications)
- list of international conferences attended previously
- justifications for the need of the support
to info@isbe2004.com by 29th February 2004.
Please use “Grant application” as the subject of your e-mail message.

Applicants should also send their abstract using the standard abstract submission procedure. However, the applicants do not need to register or book their accommodation yet (the lowest cost accommodation will be kept available for these applicants). The decision (by 30th April) will be based mainly on the scientific quality of the abstract and the justifications for the need of the support.

Partial travel support for US citizens and permanent residents

ISBE American Committee is offering partial travel support to US citizens and permanent residents to facilitate attending the 10th ISBE meeting in Jyväskylä, Finland. For details see http://web.unbc.ca/isbe/ISBEmeetings.htm
