Supporting Research Presentations in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities

Civitan International Research Center is announcing the availability of Trainee Travel Awards for graduate students and postdoctoral trainees to facilitate presentations at meetings, conferences or symposia related to research and/or clinical activities addressing neurodevelopmental disabilities. Virtual attendance is also allowed with a decreased level of award. Individual awards of up to $1200 will apply toward conference fees. The exact amount will be subject to UAB policy (receipts, rules, etc.).


The mission of the CIRC is to improve the well-being and the quality of life of individuals and families affected by neurodevelopmental disabilities; to provide interdisciplinary clinical and research training in neurodevelopmental disabilities; to utilize this knowledge to develop and provide high quality exemplary services and programs; and to exchange information in a timely way with consumers, practitioners, scientists, and society.
