$650 USD per award (2023, 2024, 2025 cycles; was $500 in 2019 and 2022). Awardees then compete for the separate $200 Early-Career Prize for the top-scoring ECR presentation.
Early-career researchers within 5 years of obtaining their highest degree; a current/paid member of the Metabolomics Society continuously for at least 3 months prior to the conference; must submit a conference abstract in the 'Oral or Poster' category; must register and attend in person.
TBD 2027 (2026/recent pattern: the travel award deadline is the oral abstract submission deadline — March 21 in 2022, March 13 in 2023, March 14 in 2024)

Dates: 2027: June 2027, exact dates TBD (2026 pattern: June 21-24, 2026, Sunday-Wednesday)
Location: 2027: TBD — the Metabolomics Society has announced the meeting but date and place are not yet confirmed. 2026: Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina (Buenos Aires Convention Center, Av. Pres. Figueroa Alcorta 2099)
Research match: Primary society meeting for Wishart's field; he has been an International Metabolomics Society member since 2006. Conference themes are Technological Advances; Computational Metabolomics, Statistics and Bioinformatics; Metabolomics in Health and Disease; and Metabolomics of Food, Plants, Environment and Microbes — a direct map onto NMR/MS metabolomics, the HMDB/NP-MRD/MiMeDB/PathBank/MetaboAnalyst database and tool portfolio, cancer biomarkers, precision medicine, and environmental/nutritional metabolomics. Wishart also sits on the EBI-MetaboLights board, which is embedded in this community.
