The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has limited funds at its disposal to help meet the travel costs of attendance at the TopFuel 2022 Light Water Reactor Fuel Performance Conference by selected participants from IAEA Member States. Preference will be given to participants who are expected to make an important contribution to the Conference. Generally, not more than one grant will be awarded to any one country.
If organizations wish to apply for a grant on behalf of one of their participants, they should address specific requests to the Conference to this effect. Organizations should ensure that applications for grants are:
• Submitted by September 16;
• Accompanied by duly completed and signed Grant Application Form giving detailed information on the scientific qualifications of the candidate and signed by the head of the applicant’s organization.
Applications which do not comply with the above conditions cannot be considered.
The grants awarded will be in the form of a lump sum, usually covering part of the travel cost of attendance.
