The 52nd Annual Meeting of the International Society for Developmental Psychobiology (ISDP) will be held October 16-18, 2019, at the Swissôtel Chicago, October 16-18, 2019 as a satellite event immediately prior to the Society for Neuroscience 2019. Researchers interested in the development of behavior in all organisms including man, with special attention to the effects of biological factors operating at any level of organization are encouraged to participate. Abstracts for oral or poster presentation of research results and theory in the area of Developmental Psychobiology as well as student/postdoc travel award applications should be submitted by June 1, 2019.
The ISDP strongly supports and encourages young scientists with travel awards, networking and meeting events designed specifically for the students and postdocs in the field.
Student/Postdoc Travel Awards for ISDP 2019 in Chicago
ISDP will provide numerous travel awards this year to assist with the cost of attending ISDP 2019! The Travel Awards are meant to help defray the costs of attending the meeting but will not likely cover all the costs. Students and postdoctoral fellows who wish to be considered for a Travel Award are required to check the appropriate box when they submit their abstract via the ISDP webpage. Students and postdoctoral fellows must be members of ISDP to be eligible. Deadline was June 1, 2019. Award applications are currently under review. For more information, please visit ISDP Awards.
