HMF Travel Grants

Our mission is to promote the advancement of art, science, and our knowledge of the world around us. HMF Travel Grants aim to support graduate students to present their research at conferences, while also encouraging them to foster the public understanding of science.

For your application we are interested in (1) who you are, (2) where you are going, and (3) how you think. Keep in mind that we want to know the most authentic version of you. All selected applicants will have their abstract and plain language summary posted on the HMF website.

Eligibility
HMF Travel Grants are limited to University of South Florida students who are accepted to present a poster or oral at an upcoming academic conference. If you would like your University to qualify for HMF Travel Grants, please connect us with your Graduate Program Director or Department Chair.
