Financial assistance

If you need financial assistance to attend BioCrust3, please provide the information requested below in the body of your email and send it with your abstract to both BioCrust3_awards@nau.edu and BioCrust3_abstracts@nau.edu. Conference organizers are actively fundraising to provide support to assist colleagues and students who would otherwise be unable to join us at the conference because of cost. Although we would like to help everyone who would like to attend, financial assistance will be limited. Assistance is available to professionals and students on the basis of the scientific merit demonstrated by their abstract and need. Deadline for submitting a request for financial assistance is Monday, May 16, 2016. The review committee will notify recipients and non-recipients of its decisions no later than June 15, 2016.
