Key Information: Only students designated by their chapter faculty adviser may apply.
The Student Chapters Travel Award, administered by the American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB), helps undergraduate student chapter members travel to present their research at the society’s annual meeting. The award supports conference travel rather than the research itself, reimbursing qualifying expenses associated with attendance at the 2027 meeting in Boston.
Research presentation and full conference participation are central to the award. Recipients must present their abstracts at their assigned dates and times, which may fall on April 4, 5, or 6, 2027. The meeting promotes cross-disciplinary exchange in molecular bioscience, giving participants opportunities to share research, connect with other scientists, and advance discovery. Recipients must also complete a post-conference survey.
