INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PHOTONIC ELECTRONIC AND ATOMIC COLLISIONS26 JULY - 1 AUGUST 2017 | CAIRNS CONVENTION CENTRE | queensland, australia

Support and prizes

SUPPORT FOR YOUNG PARTICIPANTS

Limited funds are available to support young participants presenting invited talks or contributed posters. Participants from developing regions and students will be prioritised. An application letter with signature should be submitted to icpeac30@conlog.com.au before 20 February 2017 (ATTN: ICPEAC Financial Support). Applicants will be notified of the outcome of the decision by March 2017.

The XXX ICPEAC organizing committee encourages potential Australian student participants to join the Australian Institute of Physics to become eligible for the conference support.

The conference support scheme is available to postgraduate students who have been members of the AIP for at least 6 months prior to the closing date for applications. For the XXX ICPEAC this will be the 31st August 2017 round although the application may be submitted earlier.
