ECR Promotion Events: Yes (the Early Career Lectureship recognizes outstanding early career investigators who have demonstrated innovative research in peptide science. Two recipients will be chosen biennially and each will deliver a talk at the Symposium in a session appropriate to their work. The APS will support the registration, lodging at the conference hotel and up to $1000 in travel expenses of the awardees.)
Travel Awards for ECRs: Yes (A limited number of travel awards are available for attendance at the 26th American Peptide Symposium. The Travel Award Committee’s mission is to administer financial support to offset a portion of registration fees, travel and/or housing expenses in order to provide a broad opportunity for young investigators to participate in a major scientific event, meet leaders and colleagues in the field, and present their research projects to the scientific community.)
