APSPOS News | Travel Grant Application Final Call- 4 Days to Deadline!!
Act now! The deadline to submit travel grant applications for the inaugural Asia-Pacific Strabismus and Paediatric Ophthalmology Society (APSPOS) Congress, in conjunction with the first Hong Kong Paediatric Ophthalmology Congress (HKPOC), is fast approaching on Saturday, June 10, 2017.
This year, up to 3 APSPOS Travel Grants will be awarded to young ophthalmologists in the Asia-Pacific region who have submitted an abstract to APSPOS-HKPOC 2017 and will attend BOTH APSPOS-HKPOC 2017 in Hong Kong and the CAPOS/AAPOS joint meeting in Shanghai.
Priority will be given to ophthalmologists who are aged 40 or below, from a developing country and whose presentations (free paper or poster) have been accepted by the Scientific Program Committee of APSPOS-HKPOC 2017. Each successful applicant will receive US$500 if they live outside the host country of APSPOS-HKPOC 2017 (i.e. Hong Kong) whereas those who live in the host country will receive US$300.
Interested young ophthalmologists should complete the online application form at http://congress.apspos.org/ by June 10 at 11:59 pm (GMT+8). Selection results will be announced in mid-July.For more information, please visit http://2017.apspos.org/travel-grant/.
