Young Investigator Travel Award Program

The call for 2017 Young Investigator Travel Award applications is now closed.

Applications will be reviewed by the APS Scientific Program Committee, and stipends will be awarded in late February. Notifications will be sent to applicants in March. Those applicants selected to receive a 2017 award will receive their travel grants at the annual meeting.

APS is offering travel stipends via the Young Investigator Travel Award for the 2017 APS Annual Scientific Meeting. A limited number of funding awards will be available to individuals presenting poster abstracts at the meeting, May 17-20, 2017 in Pittsburgh, PA. Applicants may be from any research training background (basic or clinical science, psychology, medicine, or biostatistics) and may be at any level in training (students, residents, predoctoral trainees, postdoctoral fellows, and those who have completed their postdoctoral training within the past 3 years).

Applicants must be APS members and must have an abstract accepted for presentation. Applications from nonmembers will not be considered. Poster abstract acceptance letters were sent to primary authors via email in early January, and the list of accepted abstracts, by primary author, is available on the website.
