Travel Scholarships

The Asia Pacific Association of Medical Toxicology is pleased to offer travel scholarships every year.

Travel scholarships are awarded to outstanding researchers who are currently conducting an experimental project in toxicology.  Only financial members of APAMT are eligible to apply for the travel scholarships.

Travel Scholarship Criteria

Applicants must be working in one of the Asia Pacific countries and not more than 45 years old.

An applicant must not have received a scholarship from APAMT in the last 2 years and should not have previously received 2 or more previous scholarships.

Application for the award must be submitted with an abstract for consideration by the Scientific Committee. If required, an applicant may be asked to provide raw data to the Scientific Committee for scrutiny.

All abstracts will be evaluated by the Scientific Committee. Applicants will be judged on the merits of the scientific quality of their submitted abstracts as well as having fulfilled other stated criteria. The judging process will make allowances for applicants with limited opportunity to undertake research.

Successful applicants will be notified by email from the APAMT Office.

Scholarship winners are required to attend the 15th APAMT Congress in Singapore to give an oral presentation of their submitted studies.

 The value of the travel component of the scholarship ranges from USD500 – USD 1,000. This money is paid at the end of the conference.
