The AMDF / ARVO Travel Grants are offered through a partnership between the American Macular Degeneration Foundation (AMDF) and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO). These grants are designed to support early-career researchers by enabling them to attend the ARVO Annual Meeting. The primary aim is to cover travel expenses so recipients can present their research, engage with cutting-edge developments in age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and connect with potential mentors and collaborators. Through this initiative, AMDF seeks to foster professional growth and advance AMD research by facilitating participation in a leading international vision science conference.
