2013 Young Investigators

APS is planning to offer Young Investigator travel support for the 2013 meeting. A limited number of funding awards will be available to individuals who will be presenting poster abstracts at the meeting, May 8–11, 2013, in New Orleans, LA. Applicants may be from any research training background (basic or clinical science, psychology, medicine, or biostatistics) and may be at any level in training, including students, residents, predoctoral trainees, postdoctoral fellows, or those who have completed their postdoctoral training with the last 3 years. All applicants must be APS members and must have an abstract accepted for presentation. Applications from nonmembers will not be considered.

The Young Investigator Travel Award application is now available. To apply for funding, complete the online application. Note that an applicant’s abstract must be accepted for presentation before he/she is eligible to submit an application for Young Investigator travel support.

Applications will be reviewed by the APS Scientific Program Committee, and stipends will be awarded in late February, 2013. Notifications will be sent to applicants in February. Those applicants selected for the 2013 meeting will receive their travel grants at the Annual Meeting.
