The American Association for Anatomy (AAA) offers the International Travel Award to help members based at international institutions attend and present at Anatomy Connected, its annual meeting. This needs-based award supports participation across all career stages by helping cover transportation, lodging, and meals. It funds meeting-related travel rather than a separate research project.
The award emphasizes access to the professional development and networking opportunities available at Anatomy Connected, alongside the opportunity to give a presentation. Applicants describe their anticipated presentation, the opportunities available to them, and how travel support would benefit them. Priority is given to applicants with financial need and those attending Anatomy Connected for the first time.
