The 6th Biennial Meeting of the Asian-Pacific
Society for Neurochemistry 4-7 February 2004, Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre
News Update
Dear Colleagues, APSN Travel Awards Investigators of the Asia-Pacific region who plan to submit abstracts as the first author are eligible to compete for APSN Travel Awards for partial support to attend the meeting. The actually amount awarded to any individual will depend on projected travel costs and is not expected to cover the full expenses fo the recipient. Awardees will be reimbursed at the meeting. Authors are required to submit a NEW abstract for applying the travel award as those abstracts of successful awardees submitted previously to the ISN/APSN Joint Meeting are already being published at the Journal of Neurochemistry.
Your application must be sent to the Chair of the APSN Travel Award Committee before 25 October 2003.
