WINTER CONFERENCE ON BRAIN RESEARCH
Travel Fellows
Travel Fellow Submissions are Now Closed!
What the Panel Fellowship Provides:
Current meeting: Free registration and $1,250 towards eligible travel expenses if the Fellow attends the entire meeting (which is expected). If the Fellow cannot attend the full meeting, this should be indicated at the time of application, and if awarded the travel reimbursement will be reduced on a pro-rated basis.
*Fellows who previously received a Poster Fellowship and who return as a Panel Fellow will only receive $625 for the Panel Fellowship.
Future meetings: Free registration to one Winter Brain meeting within 2 years of receipt of the travel award, contingent on the Fellow being the Chair of a panel session. Note that there is a cap on two free registrations for any combination of Travel Fellowships and Poster Awards.
What the Poster Fellowship Provides:
Current meeting: Free registration plus $625 toward eligible travel expenses if the Fellow attends the full meeting (which is expected). If the fellowship cannot attend the full meeting, this should be indicated at the time of application and if awarded, the travel reimbursement will be reduced on a pro-rated basis.
Future meetings: No further perks, but the Poster Fellow is eligible to apply for the Panel Fellowship Award. Note that there is a cap on two free registrations for any combination of Travel Fellowship and Poster Awards.
Lifetime Cap on Number of Free Registrations
The maximum number of free registrations for any combination of Panel Fellowship, Poster Fellowship, and Poster Awards is two. For example, if a Poster Fellow from a previous meeting receives a Panel Fellowship Award, then s/he will receive free registration (along with travel reimbursement) for the year of the Panel Fellowship, but will not be eligible for the additional free registration in future years if chairing a session, and will not receive free registration if the winner of a poster award.
