Nobel Laureate Meeting travel funding available

The Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings invites NASW members to apply for travel funding to attend the 58th Meeting of Nobel Laureates scheduled for June 29-July 4, 2008 in Lindau, Germany. These meetings bring together Nobel Laureate scientists with hundreds of young researchers, and NASW members are invited to join in the conversations.

This summer, the meeting is dedicated to physics. To learn more about the meetings, visit the council's web site or read the annual report.

NASW officers will select four NASW members to receive this travel funding. The funding covers travel costs (airfare and train) to Germany (reimbursed during the meeting) and 6 nights accommodation (booked by the Council). Some meals are included in the program, and media are invited to all open events. To apply, send a short statement of application (no more than 300 words) with your full contact information to director@nasw.org no later than April 21, 2008. Recipients will be notified by May 1. NASW will administer the selection process, but the successful applicants will work with the Council for the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings for all travel arrangements and other issues.
