German Chemical Society travel grants for Young Chemists
The 2013 IUPAC General assembly (August 8th -15th) and Congress (August 11th – 16th) will be held in Istanbul.
The German Chemical Society GDCh wants to encourage young chemists to participate in this unique Congress by offering six travel grants. Three for young chemists working in Germany and three for young chemists working in Eastern Europe. Each award consists of 1200 Euro as a contribution towards the travel costs and registration fees to attend the Congress.
The recipients are also expected to take part in the World Chemical Leadership Meeting (WCLM), which is part of the General Assembly, to discuss their visions of the future of chemistry.
Applicants should be under the age of 35.
There is no specific application form, but applicants are required to provide:
