Travel grant call

Attending leading international conferences is an important part of a young researcher’s scientific career. It provides an opportunity to present their work, receive feedback, and develop new collaborations.

  • European School of Hematology (ESH): €1,700 per grant
  • European Hematology Association (EHA): €2,000 per grant
  • International Society of Experimental Hematology (ISEH): €2,500 per grant

The applicant must:

  • Be a research or clinical trainee within a Leukemia Institute team (e.g., PhD student, postdoctoral researcher, resident, or clinical fellow),
  • Present a poster or oral communication as the first author, with an accepted abstract,
  • Have not previously received a travel grant from the Leukemia Institute.

Priority will be given to candidates presenting an oral communication or a flash poster talk.
