Mobility grants

Through the Theo Murphy Initiative (Australia), the Australian Academy of Science is offering a number of mobility grants to support a diversity of EMCRs and PhD students to attend the event.

The mobility grants are designed to offset the expenses associated with attending for those participants who may not be able to attend without support, and/or people from traditionally underrepresented demographics.

The mobility grants can be used to cover costs associated with attendance to the event, such as caring responsibilities, travel, accommodation and other support required to facilitate your attendance.

Who can apply?

We encourage applications from carers, persons with disabilities, women, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and those from regional Australia.

Grants are restricted to EMCRs and PhD students residing in Australia.
