Funding Application
We have funds to support several early career researchers, covering all 7 days/6 nights of accommodation for Capra (Sunday 20 July - Saturday 26 July). Applications should include a statement of up to 1500 characters from the applicant or supervisor motivating the request. We value applications where the home institute cofunds the expenses.
Preference will be given to early career researchers, particularly PhD students, from developing countries or with limited access to funding, who plan on presenting at Capra and are interested in participating at future Capra conferences. Researchers who do not plan to give a talk but who would like to attend may also be considered, depending on the number of applicants. Preference will also be given to those whose research directly relates to radiation reaction in general relativity and modelling gravitational waves.
Applications will be reviewed by members of the local organising committee and the equity, diversity and inclusion team at Capra. The deadline to apply for funding is April 4th 2025. Applicants can expect to hear back two weeks after the deadline. Successful applicants will be required to demonstrate travel support to Capra.
