Registration
Financial Aid
Deadline for consideration is March 1, 2007
A limited number of grants will be available for students, postdoctoral fellows, and young researchers to cover the costs of meeting registration (plan 2 accommodations). Recognizing the need to support scientists in developing nations, we intend to award several grants to applicants from countries outside North America. We will therefore welcome Applications for Funds from students, postdoctoral fellows, and young scientists from countries outside of the United States as well as from the U.S.
To apply for the grant, you will be required to prepare a one-page Word document that details your contact information and contains a preliminary abstract of the information you intend to present at the symposium. Please note that only those who present a poster or an oral presentation will be considered for financial assistance.
The margins of your Word document should be set at one inch, and APPLICATION FOR FUNDS should appear at the top of the page. Contact information should appear next, in the following order:
Full Name
Position
Affiliation
Contact Address
E-mail Address
Telephone Number
Number of years in the plant lipid field
Your abstract should follow your contact information. Although you
should follow the format specified in the Abstract Guidelines and
Submission, you may ignore the margin guidelines specified on
that page. Please note that this abstract is used for
consideration of your financial aid application only. Your
abstract for the meeting must be submitted from the Abstract
Guidelines and Submission page by the April 15 deadline.
Please e-mail your Word document as an attachment to cehret@danforthcenter.org. You will receive an e-mail response within 2 business days that confirms that the conference coordinator has been able to open your attachment.
If you have any questions or have not received an e-mail confirmation within 2 business days of submission, please contact Christine Ehret by e-mail (cehret@danforthcenter.org).
