Apply for a Travel Award for OSSD's Annual MeetingApplications are due by February 1, 2023. The Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH) is offering Science Policy Scholar Travel Awards to support the development of junior investigators who are interested in women’s health or sex and gender differences and are also interested in research policy. The awards, of up to $3,000 each, will support the attendance of two investigators at the Organization for the Study of Sex Differences (OSSD) Annual Meeting on May 7–11, 2023, in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The OSSD has four objectives: - To facilitate interdisciplinary research on sex and gender differences at all levels of biological organization;
- To advance the understanding of sex and gender differences by bringing together scientists and clinicians of diverse backgrounds;
- To encourage the application of new knowledge of sex and gender differences to improve health and health care; and
- To promote the field of sex and gender differences research through education, mentoring, and outreach.
This OSSD Annual Meeting will provide an opportunity for investigators to stay informed about the most recent advances in research and policy regarding sex differences in health and disease. Note: To apply for a travel award, a scholar must submit an abstract on women's health or sex and gender differences policy. For a scholar to be eligible to receive a travel award, the abstract must be accepted for a poster, oral session, or symposium at the meeting.
Applications are due by February 1, 2023.
