AMSBIO to make double offer award for 2024
28 Jan 2024
AMSBIO has doubled its travel grant award scheme to offer two bursaries to young scientists attending either of the American Association for Cancer Research or International Society for Stem Cell Research conference events for 2024.
On offer are two US$1,000 grants for young stem cell science professionals to help with their flights, accommodation, entry ticket, food, or anything else they might need while attending AACR 2024 (7-17 April), or ISSCR 2024 (11-13 July).
The prizes are open to those under the age of 30, employed in academia, research institutions, or companies engaged in cancer and stem cell research.
Marketing manager, Krystyna Joyce, commented: “We are so pleased to be able to offer not only one but two Travel Grants to up-and-coming researchers.
“We know that attending conferences allows scientists to meet leading experts, network with fellow researchers, and learn about new and innovative research, accelerating their career and scientific progress.”
Last year, the company funded a travel grant to attend ISSCR 2023. It was so popular that this year AMSBIO are offering two grant schemes: one for the AACR Annual Meeting 2024 in San Diego, USA, and another for the ISSCR Annual Meeting 2024 in Hamburg, Germany.
