Applications now open for ANS Finkel Foundation Travelling Fellowships!The Australasian Neuroscience Society (ANS) is excited to announce the opening the 2025 Australasian Neuroscience Society Finkel Foundation Travelling Fellowships. These awards have been made possible by the very generous donation of the A&E Finkel Foundation Trust, who have previously supported the establishment of the Australasian Course in Advanced Neuroscience. Up to four Travelling Fellowships of up to $50,000 each will be awarded annually up to and including 2028. The goals of the Travelling Fellowships are: - To provide career development opportunities to early and mid-career ANS Members based in Australia or New Zealand by supporting a “mini-sabbatical” style of Travelling Fellowship to a host laboratory with world-leading expertise relevant to development of brain-computer interfaces or related areas of innovative neurotechnology. - To enhance Australian and New Zealand neuroscience and development of innovative solutions to neurological conditions by seeding new collaborations with world experts in brain-computer interfaces or related areas of innovative neurotechnology and facilitating establishment or application of these technologies or approaches in Australia and New Zealand. Further details about the Fellowships and the application process are available on the ANS website at https://ans.org.au/awards/australasian-neuroscience-society-finkel-foundation-travelling-fellowships. Closing date for applications: 6 June 2025. ANS welcomes new members and participants in our future events. Read More |
