ASM Abstract Scholarships
The application deadline for Abstract scholarships has now passed.
Our ASM Abstract Scholarships support the best of haematology science and research. Funding is offered to eligible presenters of the highest-scoring abstracts to facilitate their attendance at the conference.
Eligible presenters include undergraduate and postgraduate students, early-career professionals in training, low to middle-income country (LMIC) residents and NHS professionals on Band 8a and below.
The Early Careers Forum has created the following two documents, giving hints and tips on how to write a successful grant application or abstract submission.

Please note: Abstract Scholarships do not require a separate application. Instead, you will be asked during abstract submission if you would like to be considered for an Abstract Scholarship. If your abstract is one of the highest-scoring, we will contact you with an offer shortly after the abstract approvals are sent.
This scholarship covers registration costs, travel and accommodation of up to £1,000.
You need to be BSH Member to receive an Abstract Scholarship.
