About
MORPH travel grants
MORPH travel grants
support conference participation for students (graduate and undergraduate),
postdoctorals, and faculty who wish to attend a MORPH-sponsored
symposium. This year, MORPH is supporting travel to a symposium entitled Causes
and consequences of floral developmental change: crossing the organismic
and molecular divide in plant evolutionary developmental
biology at the International
Botanical Congress.
This travel
grant is for students (undergraduate and graduate), postdoctorals, and junior faculty at U.S. universities only.
Funding
amount
MORPH RCN is
able to fund awardees at $500 per grant.
Evaluation
The target deadline
is April 10, 2005. Grant applications will continue
to be accepted until all annual funds

committed.
We will notify all on-time applicants before the April
15 early registration deadline.
