Specifically, the program provides travel awards to graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and early career faculty members (within 5 years of obtaining a PhD) to attend the American Physiology Summit. Applicants must be attending U.S. institutions and conducting research within the 50 States and U.S. Territories. Applicants must be individuals from a racial and ethnic group that have been shown by the National Institutes of Health to be underrepresented in health related sciences on a national basis at the above career levels, individuals with disabilities at the above career levels. Applicants are selected based on the applicant's reasons for wishing to attend the meeting, CV, and recommendation letters. Please visit the award's website for more information.
