Towards an Increased Diversity and Accessibility in the ESMRMB Annual Meeting

The ESMRMB is proud to offer this Student Support Programme for the upcoming 2025 ESMRMB Annual Meeting, which resulted from the kind donation of the 2024 annual meeting lecturers!

Student Travel Awards of 400 euros + Congress registration will be awarded to junior members of the society.

Conditions of eligibility and criteria

Please review each of the following stipend conditions carefully before making your application:

  • ESMRMB Junior or Radiographer Membership in good standing for the year 2025 is required before applying to this program. If you are not a member, you will need to complete the 2025 membership application process on or before the deadline in order to be considered for the Support Programme. Please follow this link to know more.
  • Submission of at least one abstract as presenting author to the ESMRMB 2025 Annual Meeting;
  • A completed online application form, including a motivation statement. This statement should include why you wish to apply for the stipend, also including information about the travel budget of your group, and your estimated expenses for your stay in Marseille.
  • The deadline for the application is June 6th, 2025.

The awardees will be selected by the ESMRMB awards committee based on 2 evaluation criteria: the quality of the scientific contribution; the diversity the awardees’ attendance would bring to the annual meeting from a geographical and economical perspective. Preference will be given to middle or low income countries as defined by the OECD or lower european income countries and other under-represented groups within our ESMRMB membership.

If a stipend is granted to a qualified applicant, the award will be paid out directly to the applicant (by bank transfer or check) and not the applicant’s institution or supervisor.

Please note that registration fees cannot be reimbursed! In case you registered and balanced the registration fee for the Annual Meeting before being accepted for the Student Support Programme, the ESMRMB will not refund any amount after acceptance for the Student Support Programme. Complete applications that are rejected due to the limited number of grants available will receive the opportunity to register at the early registration fee until two weeks after notification of rejection.
