SWIMM funded grants to attend scientific conferences in immunology: application spring 2024 is now open!
The Swedish Society for Immunology, SWIMM, offers its members the opportunity to apply for travel grants twice a year. Grants will be given to members for active participation (poster or oral presentation) in a conference that covers any field of immunology. All members can apply but PhD students and post docs will be given priority. SWIMM may also grant funding to visit laboratories to learn new methodology.
Please note! SSI and ICI meetings are not sponsored by SWIMM. Travel grants for these meetings can be applied for from SSI directly.
The application for the SWIMM travel grant is made on the application form that can be found here: https://swimm.se/grants/ and includes an abstract and your merits in one document.
Applications will be evaluated by the SWIMM board based on the scientific value of the abstract. The motivation text and previous experiences will be taken under consideration during the evaluation. Members who receive a SWIMM travel grant are asked to acknowledge SWIMM in their meeting presentation. SWIMM will publish the name, affiliation, abstract title and scientific meeting of grantees on the SWIMM website.
Application deadline for spring 2024 is April 1st. The applications must be for conferences not starting before the deadline of the application and take place within 9 months after the deadline of the application. You need to have paid membership for 2024 to be eligible for travel grants in 2024. For more information on how to become a member and the application form, visit our home page www.SWIMM.se
