2018-2019 CBR Postdoctoral Fellow & Research Associate Travel Awards

Once a year, the Centre for Blood Research (CBR) provides travel awards to Postdoctoral Fellows and Research Associates to aid in their travel to conferences and academic events. Any UBC Postdoctoral Fellow or Research Associate is eligible to apply, provided they have not received an award within the last year. Each award offers up to $1,000 to supplement other funding sources. Consistently throughout the years, recipients have attended, then presented their research at a diverse range of informative and exhilarating conferences. Upon their return, awardees write short reports on the conferences they attended and their experiences. These are posted on the CBR website.
