ALL PARTICIPANTS:
We anticipate support from ISBA funds and from ASA/SBSS for travel support. This support includes awards from the Pilar Iglesius Fund, the ISBA Lifetime Members Junior Researcher Fund, and the Graduate Travel Award Fund.
We expect awards ranging from $200 to $1000 depending on location
(relative cost of travel to Spain). All current students
and recent PhDs are eligible to apply.
US Participants:
We anticipate travel support for junior
investigators from US institutions (the institutional affiliation
counts. Your personal citizenship or residence status is irrelevant).
- NSF support is subject to formal approval and will be available for participants
- within 7 years from
completing the Ph.D. (Ph.D. after June 1 2003) or about to complete
their Ph.D. (with expected graduation by Jan 1 2011).
-
present at the meeting (talk or poster)
-
Women and underrepresented minorities are especially encouraged to apply.
- Subject to formal final approval we expect to support 10 participants with up to $1000 towards travel expenses.
- We have applied for NIH
support for junior participants who present work related to cancer
research (related work can include research with strong potential for
application in cancer research, such as inference for event time data,
high dimensional data, network models, etc.). In addition the same
criteria as for NSF support apply.
- U.S. participants who do not meet these criteria are still eligible to apply for the general ISBA and ASA/SBSS awards above.
APPLICATION:
In anticipation of these funding opportunities we invite applications
for travel support (other than for the Australian and Taiwanese
sources indicated above). Please send email to Patricia Cunningham, pcunning@mdanderson.org, using the subject "ISBA travel award".
Please send plain text
messages using exactly the numbered items 1 through 7 for US applicants
or 1 through 5 for those from the rest of the world. Please cut

letter needed--in fact, please do not send any lest we have to read it
:-)
