Summary: Travel support for early career faculty attending the AAI annual meeting, IMMUNOLOGY2027™.
Key Information: Applicants must be Assistant Professors or equivalent with Regular or Associate AAI membership paid through 2027.
The American Association of Immunologists (AAI) offers this grant to help early career investigators attend its annual scientific meeting, IMMUNOLOGY2027™. The award defrays meeting-related expenses rather than supporting a separate research project. It is part of AAI’s meeting and travel awards, which support members’ professional development and participation in the annual meeting.
The program is directed toward faculty at the Assistant Professor level or equivalent. Applicants do not have to be authors on a submitted abstract, although abstract authors receive preference. Support is tied to attendance, with payment following the meeting and subject to AAI’s award conditions.
