Support for Other Symposia

Applications will be reviewed twice a year at the Division’s Business meetings, which are generally held during the Spring and Fall ACS National Meetings.

The deadlines for receipt of applications are March 1 and August 1 for review at the Spring and Fall ACS meetings, respectively. Proposals received after a given deadline will be held for consideration at the business meeting associated with the next deadline.

These awards are intended to provide our members with fora in which to present their work, and to support conferences on biochemistry/chemical biology. Proposals judged not to meet these objectives, such as requests for blanket support of regional ACS meetings, are unlikely to be funded.

If funding is sought for a symposium, requests will only be accepted from a conference chair, who must be a DBC member (chair of the symposium).

Requests will only be considered from non-profit entities.

Support is meant to encourage meetings that:

• Are highly accessible and diverse (low cost, attendees at all career stages and professional tracks, underrepresented groups).

• Serve division of biological chemistry (DBC) members (members constitute a significant fraction of attendees), the topic is central to our division (rather than peripherally biochemical).
