Apply Now for a Fall Quarter Postdoc Conference Travel Grant
The Office of Postdoctoral Affairs (OPA) supports postdoc conference travel through a limited number of grants each quarter. To be eligible, you must be a Northwestern University postdoc with at least one-year appointment. (Postdocs who will be at Northwestern for less than a year are not eligible.) Postdocs may only receive one grant per academic year. Apply here by Friday, November 7.If the OPA receives more applicants than they have funds, recipients will be randomly selected from eligible applicants. Grants will not be awarded retroactively. Please email Beth Healey in the OPA with any questions.
