The ISCB Student Council has been able to secure funding from the Wellcome Trust to provide travel fellowships to the 6th ISCB Student Council Symposium (SCS-6). The Wellcome Trust made available $10,000 USD that will be used to fund four travel fellowships for students from developing countries. The travel fellowships will be given to outstanding applicants and will cover all expenses, including air fare and accommodation for SCS-6 and the main ISMB 2010 conference. Details about the application process can be found here.

The Wellcome Trust is a global charity dedicated to achieving extraordinary improvements in human and animal health. It supports the brightest minds in biomedical research and the medical humanities. The Trust's breadth of support includes public engagement, education and the application of research to improve health. It is independent of both political and commercial interests.
