This opportunity is possible through a grant from the Fields Institute. Note that awardees will need to pay for their expenses ahead of time and get reimbursed after the conference. In selecting attendees for travel support, preference will be given to postdoctoral fellows and graduate students who have no alternative means of support.

We particularly encourage the participation of women and members of underrepresented minorities.

The submission deadline is October 15, 2024.

Travel Support Requirements

Applicants are strongly encouraged to secure additional funding from other sources. Funds will be disbursed only in the form of reimbursements for actual expenses. A receipt is required for any expense reimbursed (e.g. airfare and hotel receipts).
