The purpose of the Travel Awards is to enable Early Career Researchers (ECR) to attend an international conference of significance to their research. At this conference applicants are expected to be presenting their current research as an invited presenter, as an oral presentation or a poster presentation. The research material to be presented at the conference should be current and not based primarily on the Applicant’s PhD studies. In considering applications, the selection committee will have regard to: 1. the status of the conference; 2. the Letter of Endorsement; 3. the nature and extent of the Applicant's participation in the conference proceedings; and 4. any other proposed activities.
