FOCIS 2016 Trainee Travel Award Competition (Deadline: Jan 8th 2016)

The FOCIS annual meeting is going to be held in Boston June 22-25, 2016
It is a great venue for presenting and hearing about human immunology

Abstract deadline Jan 27, 2016

There are some really useful courses for trainees just ahead of the meeting, including:

Computational immunology – Tuesday June 21
Basic immunology in Medicine – Tuesday June 21
Interventional immunology – Wednesday June 22

Our centre can nominate up to two trainees for travel awards:  this includes complementary registration and a travel award of up to $500 plus a chance to particpate in a half day networking event.

To determine which two trainees to nominate we will be holding an internal competition for U of T human immunology network members.

Award Deadline:

Trainee should send abstract and CV  and endorsement by their PI (in the form of email agreement that they be nominated) to human.immunology@utoronto.ca by January 8, 2015

This will give us time to vet the applications in time to nominate trainees before the Jan 27 abstract deadline.
