Description
The American Association of Immunologists (AAI) Laboratory Grant helps mid-career and senior investigators attend the association’s annual meeting, IMMUNOLOGY2027™, and communicate research through podium or poster presentations. This is a travel award, rather than funding to conduct a research project, and is part of AAI’s meeting and travel awards supporting members’ professional development.
The principal investigator (PI) or laboratory director receives one award and may select a second recipient from the same laboratory. The primary applicant must be a first or last author on an abstract submitted to the meeting. Second recipients need not be abstract authors, although those who are receive preference.
