Subject: The Student Voice at NABC - $750 travel stipend

 

Please make students at your institution aware of this year's Student Voice travel stipend to attend NABC 23: Food-Security: The Intersection of Sustainability, Safety and Defense.  NABC provides up to $750 to one graduate student from each member institution as well as  free meeting registration.

 

Details and application form are available at http://nabc.cals.cornell.edu/studentvoice/index.cfm

 

Please distribute this offer widely at your institution. The students need not be working on the specific theme of the meeting, but need to have a general interest in agricultural biotechnology.

 

The students are selected by the member institutions, not by NABC. So while we need a copy of the registration form for organizational purposes, other application materials such as letter of recommendation by the advisor and project description should not be forwarded to NABC.

 

Please let me know as soon as a student has been selected as delegate so I can handle their registration and help them with finding a roommate, should that be desired.
