All Illinois Tech undergraduate students interested in neuroscience are invited to apply for a $1,000 travel award to attend Neuroscience 2018, the Society for Neuroscience’s 48th Annual Meeting in San Diego from Saturday, November 3 through Wednesday, November 7. The conference is the world’s largest neuroscience conference – with more than 30,000 attendees from 80 countries – for scientists and physicians devoted to understanding the brain and nervous system.

Application Instructions

To apply for the travel award, please submit an abstract on the Society for Neuroscience website and send a copy to Elisabeth Hildt, director of the Center for the Study of Ethics in the Professions, by Thursday, May 3. Students can be part of a research team; you do not need to be the first author on the submitted abstract.

The travel award is possible by a generous gift from Illinois Tech psychology alumnus William Pizzi (Ph.D. ’72).
