Heiligenberg Student (Travel) Awards - HSAHeiligenberg Student Travel Awards (6 or more depending on the availability of funds) shall be awarded annually to qualified students who wish to present work in the field of neuroethology at selected national and international scientific meetings. The highest priorities will be International Congress for Neuroethology (ICN) and Gordon Research Conference in neuroethology, during the years when these conferences take place. During the Off-years for ICN and GRC, the Awards can be used to support travels to "major" regional meetings, such as the SFN meeting, Goettingen meeting, European Neuroscience meeting, and Asia-Pacific Neuroscience meeting. The award is given in honor of Walter Heiligenberg, who was a distinguished neuroethologist, and a pioneer in the field. The awards may cover expenses such as travel to and from the conference site, conference registration fee, and/or housing costs up to a total of $600. Qualifications: Both the student and the student's mentor must be ISN members by the deadline of application (to be decided by the HSA Selection Committee). Applicants must be registered graduate students at a university, and must plan on presenting their work at the conference. Priorities will be given to applicants who have demonstrated academic excellence and research potential as evidenced by the abstract of the work to be presented and the recommendation letters. Applicants with demonstrated financial needs also will be considered for these awards. Preferences will be given to applicants who have not previously received HSAs. To apply, fill out the application form below and have letters of recommendation from two ISN members submitted to the Society Office. Applications are reviewed two to three times per year. Please also note that:
