Travel funds

Limited travel funds are available for early-career scientists. First-time participation at the ASC is especially encouraged. To be eligible, the applicant must meet these requirements:

• 35 years of age or younger
  
  
• nationality and affiliation in an ICES Member Country
  
  
• abstract submitted and registration for ASC completed
  
  

Because funds are limited, travel support can only be partial, e.g. airfare, accommodation, subsistence. The submitted applications will be assessed on the basis of these criteria:

• Application for partial support will be given preference, unless the contribution is outstanding;
  
  
• Originality of work as shown in abstract;
  
  
• Significance for one of the Theme Sessions.
  
  

Your application (short and concise) with the abstract and a short CV (Word or PDF documents) should be submitted by e-mail to the Science Program no later than
Monday 15 June 2009. Successful applicants will be notified by the end of June.
