Travel Grants
SCCR travel grants are for fellows traveling to a meeting in which the results of their SCCR funded-research are being presented. The SCCR must be acknowledged in the student’s slides or poster as the funding source.
The SCCR will reimburse half of the total cost of the trip up to a max of $1,000 for a fellow’s travel to one professional meeting per calendar year.
