Support for Young Scientists

A limited number of partial travel support is available for researchers under 40 years old (as of October 2019, rough guideline). Only those who are accepted for paper presentation and have financial difficulty in traveling will be considered for the support. Students are ineligible for this support (students can apply to the Student Award).

The applicant must be the first author of the presentation. To apply for the Travel Support, an application document which includes (1) a letter of application with a statement of reason and (2) 1 page of abstract must be prepared. A written form must be saved in a PDF format and should be sent together with a short (< 150 words) abstract. A template file of the document can be downloaded below. The deadline is the same as that for the regular abstract submission, May 31st, 2019.

The steering committee will strictly judge whether the application should be accepted or not, and a notification will be sent by an e-mail to the applicant by the early registration deadline. Accepted authors receive reimbursement of travel expenses up to ¥50,000 in cash, only available at the registration desk (no prepay available).
