*IUPAP Working Group on Women in Physics*

*Supporting Women in Physics in Developing Countries*

We have received funding to launch a new round of the IUPAP Travel Grants
Program.  This program was created to help fund women from developing and
low income countries, who may not have another opportunity, to attend a
regional or international conferences, workshop or school.  We expect to be
able to fund approximately 25 grants at a maximum of $700.00 or less per
grant.

Grant applications should be received no later than May 9, 2016.
Recipients will be selected by the IUPAP Working Group on Women in Physics
by Mid-May, and all applicants will be notified of the outcome by the first
week of June, 2016.

Only women physicists from low income developing countries may apply.  Due
to limited funding, those who have received a grant in the past, under this
program, are not eligible for a second grant.

Those interested in applying for a grant should submit the following
information, via email as a WORD document only or as text within the
email.  *PLEASE DO NOT SEND AS A PDF FILE**. *If you attach files, please
include your last name on all the file documents.

1. Complete contact information including name, address, email and phone
number.

2. Years since your Ph.D (or undergraduate degree for graduate students)
was granted.

3. Brief description of the conference, school, or workshop you wish to
attend (including date of      conf., place to be held, & website if
available) and if you will be making a presentation.

4. Brief statement of how attending the conference will enhance your career.

5. If you have attended any regional or international conferences, please
list them.

6. A breakdown of the amount of money required to attend (Ex: Airfare,
registration fee, meals). *The maximum award is $700 US, therefore if your
trip cost exceeds this amount please state how you will fund the balance of
the cost. *

7. List your publications from the last 5 years.

8. One Letter of recommendation.

Send all information to Jackie BeamonKiene at, [email-masked] by close of
business (5:00p.m. US EDT) on May 9, 2016.
