Financial Assistance

ALT has a limited amount of scholarship funds to provide support for a number of ALT members attending the ALT8 Conference.  Financial support is available for members whose abstract has been accepted (oral presentation or poster), and will be awarded on the basis of financial need of the applicant.

ALT members wishing to apply for financial support should send an application to the Secretary-Treasurer before April 23rd at jean-christophe.verstraete@arts.kuleuven.be. The application should consist of a brief statement (one paragraph) explaining why the applicant considers herself/himself to be in need of financial assistance, and an estimate of the costs to be covered.

ALT scholarships are intended for scholars from developing countries and for students anywhere.
