Caregiver Grant

We are pleased to provide a limited number of caregiver grants to help attendees of the 2022 Midwest Microbial Pathogenesis Conference toward dependent-care expenses that they will incur by attending the conference. Thanks to generous support from our sponsors, we are piloting a program to offer grants up to $250 to help offset extra costs incurred by caregivers (such as parents or individuals providing elder care). Any conference registrant is eligible, although priority will be given to early-career researchers and poster/talk presenters. Please click the link below for more information. Grant applications may be submitted at any time, but note that those submitted by September 1, 2022, will receive a decision by September 7, 2022.

Applications for the Caregiver Grants are now closed.
