Laboratory Exchange Grant supports young ISN students and postdocs visiting laboratories abroad to gain technical or conceptual skills for their research and potentially share them at home institutions.
Funder: International Society for Neurochemistry
Due Dates: October 31, 2026 (Application deadline) | November 30, 2026 (Application deadline)
Funding Amounts: Up to USD 5,000 for visits lasting 30 days to approximately three months
Summary: Supports young ISN student and postdoc members visiting laboratories abroad to acquire technical or conceptual skills for their research.
Key Information: Applicants need 24 months of continuous ISN membership or a Journal of Neurochemistry publication, and must have renewed membership annually.
The International Society for Neurochemistry (ISN) Laboratory Exchange Grant promotes international scientific exchange within the neurochemistry community. It supports young ISN members—students and postdocs—to visit laboratories abroad and gain new technical or conceptual skills they can apply to their own research and potentially bring back to their home institutions.
The exchange must have a convincing connection to the applicant’s current research project. Assessment considers the applicant’s track record, the scientific quality of the project, and the eligibility of both the applicant and host. Funding covers the practical costs of the visit, while the host laboratory provides the resources needed for the laboratory work.
