Description
The American Physiological Society’s International Early-career Physiologist Travel Awards help early-career physiologists living and working outside the United States attend the American Physiology Summit to present their work. The program supports travel expenses associated with scientific presentation, rather than providing direct funding for a research project. It is intended for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty members.
The awards are an initiative of the Society’s International Committee, which reviews and rates applications. Support is tied to attendance and presentation at the Summit, including a two-minute elevator speech. Recipients are recognized at the meeting, and award funds are sent by wire transfer after the Summit.
