The Iowa Neuroscience Institute is sponsoring postdoctoral conference travel awards. These awards will enhance postdoctoral training, increase the opportunities for networking and collaboration across neuroscience disciplines, and support dissemination of research results. 

Awards are intended to cover meeting registration, abstract fees, travel expenses, and accommodation, up to a maximum of $2,000. Postdocs in labs affiliated with the INI or who are carrying out neuroscience-related research are encouraged to apply. Conference attendees are expected to present at the meeting (unless the purpose of travel is to attend a training course; e.g., CSHL).

Application deadline: Feb 27, 2026 (for awards for conferences between May 1, 2026 – April 30, 2027)
