Student, Young Scientist and Hardship Support

Student registrations should be accompanied with a letter from the student's supervisor on the university's or department's letterhead stating the student's academic status. Through the generous support (committed and expected) of our sponsors, some partial financial assistance will be available for students and junior scientists. 

If you like to be considered for support, please submit to the Conference Chairman a one-page letter describing your research accomplishments and the material you would like to present at the Conference. A letter of recommendation from your supervisor should accompany your application. Please include your name, position, mailing address, fax number, e-mail address and a brief comment on the special reasons for which you are seeking financial assistance. Make sure to sign the letter and submit this information no later than January 15, 2001. In addition, written requests to the Conference Chairman from exceptional financial hardship cases will be accepted and adjudicated by the Conference Committee for partial support on a case-per-case basis, depending on the availability of funds.
