NIDDK Minority Travel Award Information The American Physiological Society, with support from NIDDK, is offering travel awards for underrepresented minorities (i.e., African-Americans, Hispanics, Native Americans, and Pacific Islanders) who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents, to attend the APS Conference: Sex and Gender in Cardiovascular-Renal Physiology and Pathophysiology being held in Austin, TX, August 9-12, 2007. The specific intent of this award is to increase participation of pre- and postdoctoral minority students in the physiological sciences. The awards are open to graduate students, postdoctoral students, and advanced undergraduate students. Minority faculty members at institutions eligible for Minority Access to Research Career (MARC) awards or Minority Biomedical Research Programs (MBRS) awards may also apply. Funds will provide transportation, meals, and lodging. Apply now for the APS/NIDDK Minority Fellowship Travel Award. The deadline for applications is April 16, 2007. A separate application must be submitted for each applicant; incomplete applications will not be reviewed. All applications must be completed online.
