The American Elasmobranch Society Student Travel Award
Students presenting a contributed paper as a first or sole author during the 2008 AES meetings
are invited to apply for financial assistance to attend the meeting. All applicants MUST be
members in good standing of AES (dues paid by January 1, 2008) and in at least their second
year of membership. The maximum award will not exceed $500. Students are only
eligible for travel assistance once per degree. Assistance will be need-based (when funds are
limiting and the society is not able to fund all applicants). In these instances priority will
be given to students with full research results to present rather than preliminary analyses.
To apply:
Submit FIVE (5) paper copies of a complete application package (details listed below)
or
Submit an electronic copy of your proposal to the Grant Committee Chair (below)
Electronic submission is preferred if possible.
Application package requirements:
- A completed application form
- Itemized budget showing how the funds will be spent
- An abstract of the paper or poster to be presented
- A letter indicating how the support will be used and why it is needed. An indication of other
funding that has been applied for or secured should be included in this letter.
Completed applications (both mail and email) must be posted by 5pm March 28, 2008. Late applications will not be considered.
Submit applications to:
Jim Gelsleichter
