Educational Grants supported in part by: & Brian Kelly

Educational Grant Information

MSACL's mission is educational advancement in the area of clinical mass spectrometry. The Educational Grant program is intended to advance this directive. Overview

1. Only conference registration will be awarded.

2. If you have received support 2 or more times you are not eligible for support, unless you are performing a specific service, such as Scientific Committee, Ambassador, etc.

3. Applications that are marginal -- poorly prepared (spelling, syntax, punctuation, formatting error) without objective justification and detail -- will be rejected. Be concise with your application.

4. Make sure you apply to the the correct program – read the requirements carefully. If you don’t qualify – don’t apply.

5. If your grant requires a mentor's support email – make sure they submit the endorsement.
