2023 Lymphatic Forum Travel Awards
The travel awards are made possible by a generous grant from the Salice Family Foundation.
The Lymphatic Education & Research Network (LE&RN) is offering Travel Awards (20 total of $500 US currency) for early investigators who are LE&RN members (PhD students ,graduate students, medical students and postdocs) to defray registration and travel costs associated with attending the Lymphatic Forum.

Travel awards are NOT available for local participants (defined as “residing within a 25 mile radius of the meeting venue”) to attend the conference.
The North American Vascular Biology Organization (NAVBO) is offering up to five Travel Awards of $500USD each to trainee members of NAVBO (students, postdocs or equivalent).
