Bursaries 

Excited about MEG-UKI but don’t have the funds to attend? We have three travel bursaries available for poster presenters that will cover the cost of registration, conference dinner, 2 nights accommodation and a contribution towards transportation costs.

To apply for the bursary, you can do so by either ticking the box during abstract submission or (if you have already submitted an abstract) by e-mailing academic.conferences@contacts.bham.ac.uk with the subject heading “MEG-UKI Travel Bursary”.

Please note that there a limited number of bursaries available. To help us support the presenters who would benefit most, please include a short supporting statement (of around 200 words or fewer). Please outline how attending this meeting will be beneficial to your professional development and career goals, highlighting what you aim to achieve through your attendance.

Successful applicants will be informed on the week of the 23rd of September.

Please keep in mind that this bursary is intended for those who might not have the funds to attend MEG-UKI without additional support. If you do have funds to attend but indicate that you need this travel bursary, you may take the place of someone else who would not be able to attend otherwise.
