Dear Colleagues,

The Neurobureau is excited to announce a stipend program for Brainhack 2013. The stipend program was created following a generous grant from Siemens Healthcare to assist young investigators in attending Brainhack 2013. Without their support, the stipend program would not exist.

The stipend program will provide at least 6 stipends for partial or full registration fees [if 24 attendees apply, you have a 25% chance of getting a stipend]. The exact breakdown of stipends provided will depend on the number of applicants and the cost of attending the conference for those applicants.

The application for stipend requires: (1) A poster abstract (2) A 1-2 page Brainhack project proposal (pdf format) (3) NIH Biosketch/CV (pdf format)

To apply, please send the above details to Donald McLaren ( mclaren.donald@gmail.com). This change is being made due to technical difficulties of the website. I will email everyone on Saturday morning to confirm that their application is being considered. If you do not receive and email on Saturday morning, please resend your application.

The Brainhack 2013 Organizing Committee will decide which applications will receive stipends based on their abstract and proposed brainhack projects.

The deadline to apply for one of the stipends is 11:59PM EST on September 27th. All decisions will be made by October 3rd and must be accepted within 24 hours of being awarded.

Good luck.
