Travel Fellowships to RNA 2012
RNA 2012 will be held from May 29th through June 3rd in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
As in past years, the RNA Society has funds available to provide travel fellowships in support of researchers who otherwise would not be able to attend the meeting for financial reasons. This year we have budgeted $30,000 for this purpose, but we are also soliciting additional support from corporate sponsors, so more funds may be available later. In most cases the fellowships will be made in the form of reduced or waived registration fees, although it is possible that some contribution toward travel costs could be made in addition to the fee waiver. Travel reimbursement, if awarded, will be presented in the form of a check from the RNA Society either during or after the close of the conference (keep your travel receipts; they will be required to receive reimbursement!).
Please note:
Previous awardees are not eligible to receive a fellowship. No more than one fellowship per research group will be granted. Fellowships are restricted to RNA Society members. Abstracts submitted with the travel fellowship application will NOT be entered into the conference registration system. You will need to make a separate conference registration, followed by a separate abstract submission once you have registered for the conference.
The application deadline for travel fellowships is February 29th. The conference organizers will review your request, and decisions will be communicated by email no later than March 7th. Registration and abstracts must then be submitted by March 11th to be considered for an oral presentation, or by March 31st to meet the poster-only early registration deadline.
