The mission of the funder is to advance the field of biophysics by supporting research and development in various scientific disciplines such as math, chemistry, physics, engineering, pharmacology, and materials sciences. This support aims to encourage the use of interdisciplinary skills to explore and develop new tools for understanding the mechanisms of life and the complex systems within our bodies.
The grant program supports Travel Awards provided by the Biophysical Society for its Annual Meeting, aimed at students, postdoctoral researchers, and scientists of all career levels to foster excellence in biophysics and enhance global interaction among biophysicists. The grants focus on recognizing the scientific merit of applicants' research, ensuring diversity among recipients through a comprehensive evaluation by various Society committees. The Travel Awards cover expenses up to $750, depending on travel distance. Additionally, Bridging Funds are available for regular members facing a temporary funding gap, and Low-Income Country Travel Awards support members from low and lower-middle-income economies, offering meeting registration and $3,000 in travel funds, facilitating their participation in the Annual Meeting.
