Invited Speakers and Travel Support Awardees

Funding support for airfare and two (2) nights lodging is available for a limited number of participants. Please register early to reserve your spot. Award notifications will be sent by mid-July (earlier for early registrants).

Once accepted to the meeting, you will receive instructions on UCI travel arrangements and will be prompted to book through UCLA Travel. Please do not make your own travel reservations, as those will not be reimbursed.

Hotel rooms have been reserved at the Sonesta Hotel for the awardees. Please do not book your own hotel unless you choose to stay elsewhere at your own expense.
