The Duke University Center for Host-Microbial Interactions (CHoMI) will award travel grants, worth $1000 each, to support students or post-doctoral fellows to attend national and international scientific meetings. Travel grants will be awarded on the basis of the scientific quality of the submitted abstracts.
Preference is given to fellows/students who have not received a travel grant in the past two years, and the Selection Committee will strive to award only one travel grant per laboratory.
