Guidelines for presenters and council members
Presenters or council members seeking financial assistance to help defray the costs of attending the annual meeting are eligible to apply for a travel award. Students will be given first priority.
Deadline and Eligibility
Presenters need to have a submitted and accepted abstract for the respective meeting in order to be eligible. This ensures the presenter’s commitment to attending the meeting is not solely contingent upon financial support by EBBA. The Deadline to apply for a travel award is midnight on March 1st. Importantly, this application pertains only to annual meeting travel awards. Research awards are applied for separately.
Award Value
At a minimum, awardees will have registration and meal costs waived. Any additional support will vary on a yearly basis, contingent upon available accommodations and annual budget allotments.
Depending on the available accommodations at each meeting, the award may also cover room expenses for a Maximum of two nights (i.e. Friday and Saturday of the meeting weekend), and depending on the annual budget, there may also be Up To $200 available to reimburse transportation/travel expenses.
