Travel Grant

To support members’ travel to conferences and meetings.

Travel grants-in-aid will be considered for attendance at Society for Endocrinology events. A limited number of grants will be available for attendance at overseas events, where the applicant can demonstrate added value by incorporating additional activities (such as a lab visit, departmental seminar, research visit etc.). To be considered for a grant for international travel, applicants are expected to have attended the Society’s annual conference, SfE BES, at least once, in the past three years (e.g. to have attended either SfE BES 2021, 2022 or 2023).

Travel grants are highly competitive and applicants wishing to attend SfE BES or other scientific conferences will need to provide evidence of an accepted abstract before payment is made or the grant will be withdrawn.  Grants are not awarded retrospectively, and so please do apply in advance to the appropriate grant deadline.

Eligibility

Barriers to application have been removed and ALL members will be eligible to apply for ALL grants; Single
and multiple co-applicant applications are welcome from members. However, the only caveat is that

Primary Applicants should have been a Society member for at least one year prior to the grant deadline or

either alone, jointly with another affiliated Patient Support Group or in collaboration with Society
