In order to promote junior scientists in early career stages and to facilitate scientific exchanges between the members of the Japan Neuroscience Society (JNS) and FENS, under the FENS-JNS agreement, JNS and FENS provide support for travel and/or accommodation costs associated with participation in respective JNS or FENS Meetings, or FENS supported Summer/Winter Schools. Stipends of up to €4,000 annually(e.g. €1,000 per person x 4 or €2,000 per person x 2) provide support for the actual travel expenses (economy flight only) and expenses linked to accommodation during the annual or biennial meetings, or the training period. This program is designed to help researchers broaden their research perspective and to encourage their research and network building in the scientific community. JNS helps and supports undergraduate or graduate students working towards a master or a PhD degree, or junior postdocs (less than three years after obtaining PhD at the time of the application deadline) to join the FENS biennial meetings in the even years, or the FENS-supported Summer/Winter Schools in odd years.

We are now calling for the application for a travel stipend to join the FENS Forum 2024.

Selected awardees will be asked to finalize submission of their abstract and meet the FENS abstract deadline of 9 February 2024. The registration instructions will be given upon acceptance.

JNS encourages participation of members from diverse backgrounds and offers equal opportunity.
