Easl Young Investigators' Bursaries
EASL's aim is to support Young Investigators and help them attend the
Annual Meeting.
In order to achieve the above, EASL offers 2 types of bursaries to the
presenting authors only of the best accepted abstracts who are aged
35 or under and are still in training.
| The application is available
to anyone fulfilling the above criteria, without geographical restrictions! |
FULL BURSARIES
120 bursaries of 700 European Euros each will be attributed
to the presenting author of the best 120 scored abstracts. This bursary
will be handed out by cheque during the Annual Meeting. In addition, the
registration fees to the meeting will be waived.
REGISTRATION BURSARIES
Presenting authors of the remaining best accepted abstracts
answering the same criteria as mentioned above, will have their registration
fees waived.
APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS
- Bursary request is to be made on the abstract form during the abstract
submission only, the name of the presenting author matching the name
of the requester. Applications received after the abstract submission
will not be considered.
- Bursary requests without proof of age (clear copy of ID indicating
date of birth) and proof of trainee status (either copy of student card
or letter signed by head of department) sent to the EASL Liaison Bureau
will not be considered.
DEADLINE FOR RECEIPT OF DOCUMENTS IS DECEMBER 12, 2004.
- Confirmations will be sent out by January 31, 2005.
- Confirmed beneficiaries will be automatically registered to the
meeting (no payment of registration fees is required).
- Name changes of presenting authors will be accepted until February
27, 2005. In the case of a bursary replacement, all above proof
documents must be sent to the EASL Liaison Bureau together with the
request.
EASL is willing to assist certain participants with an accepted paper, from
resource-limited countries, who encounter financial difficulties to attend the
Annual Meeting. Further details can be obtained by contacting the EASL Liaison
Bureau, IN WRITING ONLY, after the abstract selection has been officially announced.
| IMPORTANT NOTE: EASL will grant the above bursaries
only to those presenting authors who will attest that they are not
being sponsored or covered by any other source in order to attend
the 40th Annual Meeting. |
