Description
The International Society for Neurochemistry (ISN) Conference Support Grant funds small conferences on specialized, important, and up-to-date neurochemical topics. Administered competitively by the ISN Conference Committee (ISN-CC), the program fosters scientific dialogue, collaboration, and the free exchange of ideas through focused meetings where researchers share discoveries and develop new connections.
The program emphasizes participation by young neurochemists, including students and postdoctoral researchers, through Young ISN Neurochemistry Awards. Supported meetings should bring together leading scientists and early-career researchers whose expertise fits the scientific theme, with broad international representation. Priority goes to conferences that have not previously received ISN-CC support. Financial grants are now exclusively for small conferences: the Support for Symposia scheme has been discontinued, while ISN Mini-Meets remain a separate virtual-meeting opportunity.
