Travel Grants  

The IBRO Travel Grants Programme aims to foster neuroscience research especially in less well-funded countries by providing support to high quality neuroscientists from diverse geographic and scientific areas (US/Canada Region excluded) who wish to participate at international neuroscience meetings.

Priority is given to those who have not obtained funding from this programme within the past three years.  Applicants cannot apply for more than one category of funding within travel grants.  


IBRO Travel Grants

Application Deadlines: 

  • 1 March - for travel to conferences occurring during July to December of that year.

  • 1 September - for travel to conferences occurring during January to June of the following year.

Amount: up to 1250 euros

The Travel Grants support neuroscientists to present their research findings at international neuroscience meetings. The funding for travel will be up to Euros 1,250 per award.

IBRO/SfN International Travel Grants

Application Deadline: 1 March

Amount: up to $2000 US

The Society for Neuroscience offers travel fellowships to their annual meeting of up to $2000 USD each for neuroscientists under the age of 35 who are currently working and living in a resource-restricted country – those defined by the World Bank as low, lower-middle, or upper-middle income. (Click here for the World Bank's country classifications.) Registration fees are waived for successful candidates attending the meeting.  

The candidates should be neuroscientists from the IBRO Regions of Africa, Asian/Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America and Western Europe. To qualify for this travel award, you must both be a citizen of and reside in a country that the World Bank has classified low, lower-middle or upper-middle income. Candidates from Canada/USA region are excluded.

The applicant should be the first author of an abstract to be presented at the SfN annual meeting. A copy of the abstract submitted to SfN for a poster or a platform presentation is required.

Awardees will be notified prior to the SfN abstract deadline of May 15 of the current year as to whether they have been elected for the SfN travel grant. However, this award is contingent upon the awardee's abstract being accepted by SfN, proof of attendance at the meeting, and fulfillment of the requirements as stated above.

Apply on-line.

IBRO/NIDA Travel Grants

Application Deadline: 1 March

Amount: up to 1250 euros

Two NIDA/IBRO Travel Grants of up to Euros 1,250 each will be awarded by NIDA (the National Institute on Drug Abuse, NIH) and the IBRO Fellowships & Travel Grants Programme to young investigators (excluding the US/Canada Region) to present posters at the NIDA mini-convention, a satellite meeting of the Society for Neuroscience Annual Meeting.

The candidates should be neuroscientists under the age of 35 from the IBRO Regions of Africa, Asian/Pacific, Central and Eastern Europe, Latin America and Western Europe. 'Frontiers in Addiction Research' is an all-day meeting sponsored by NIDA. The mini-convention feature symposia on the neurobiology of drug abuse and addiction, with symposium topics spanning the cellular through the neurobehavioral levels of research. The invited Early Career Poster Session takes place during an extended lunch break of approximately two hours during the mini-convention. The same poster can be presented for the regular SfN meeting.
