NTP 2015 Travel AwardAnnouncement
Elucidating Environmental Dimensions of Neurological Disorders and Disease:
Understanding New Tools from Federal Chemical Testing Programs
*****************
One of NTP's current initiatives is to increase awareness and familiarity 
within the research community about high throughput screening (HTS) efforts and 
associated data and tools and foster the training of post-doctoral fellows and 
new and early stage investigators. As part of this effort, NTP will provide ~ 
10 travel awards (http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/go/trvlschlr) to help support the 
travel costs for attending and participating in a 2015 meeting being organized 
by the Environmental Defense Fund, called Elucidating Environmental Dimensions 
of Neurological Disorders and Disease: Understanding New Tools from Federal 
Chemical Testing Programs. Travel awards will beprioritized for investigators 
who have an interest in considering high throughput screening data as a 
research tool to investigate the potential effects of environmental chemicals 
on neurological disorders and disease.

A draft agenda for the meeting can be found here:
