ISCB Conference Fellowship (travel and registration fellowship) for ISMB
ISMB/ECCB 2027 — 35th Annual Intelligent Systems for Molecular Biology, flagship conference of the International Society for Computational Biology (ISCB), held jointly with the European Conference on Computational Biology Europe

Amount: The maximum award is determined by the geographical location of the applicant and is paid on submission of appropriate receipts; ISCB warns that funded applicants will cover only approximately 50% of the expense of travel plus registration, so applicants must secure additional funding. Specific per-region maxima are published on each year's fellowship page. Eligible expenses: conference registration, registration for the Student Council Symposium or Tutorials, air or land transportation from home region to conference city, hotel accommodation booked within the official ISCB block, and a maximum of $250.00 in meal expenses.

Deadline: TBD 2027 (2026 pattern: applications are by invitation only, issued after acceptance notification; ISMB 2026 notified funding status no later than June 5, 2026 and required funded applicants to register by June 11, 2026. Comparable prior deadlines: May 20, 2025 for ISMB/ECCB 2025 and May 19, 2023 for ISMB/ECCB 2023 — passed for 2026.)

Open to any ISCB member in good standing, with priority to members from low or middle income countries as well as students and postdoctoral fellows. Consideration is based on membership, accepted work, and country economic status. Applicant must be a current ISCB member whose membership does not expire before December 31 of the conference year (pending memberships do not qualify and must be paid in full before applying). Applicant must be listed as an author or co-author on the original submission of an accepted Proceedings paper, Abstract, or Poster (excluding accepted Late-Breaking Posters) and must be the presenter. Applicant must attend the conference and must be able to pay all costs up front.
