EACR Meeting Bursaries

EACR has always aimed to assist younger and early-career researchers to advance their work and knowledge. To this end, EACR is pleased to be able to offer meeting bursaries to assist student and early-career members of the European Association for Cancer Research to attend EACR-22.

  • The scheme is specifically designed to support the attendance of student members, and members with less than ten years post-doctoral experience - including late entrants to cancer research – who have difficulties in securing alternative funding to participate in the congress.
  • Applications are invited from researchers who have been Active members of the Association for at least 6 months prior to the application and Student members, of at least 3 months standing, who are registered on a PhD or equivalent programme.
  • All applicants must submit an abstract for the congress
  • An award may be made to the value of 600-1200 Euro (weighted in relation to estimated travel costs). This grant will be used to assist with the cost of accommodation and travel to support full attendance at EACR-22.  Funding to meet the cost of early-rate or student membership registration is included in the award. (If a registration has already been purchased, the cost will be reimbursed to successful bursary applicants)
  • An application form with full details is available in the Members’ Area of the main EACR website via Upload, view and comment on documents (you will require your EACR log in details to view this.)
  • Deadline for receipt of applications: 23rd February 2012
