• Disability Insurance: Coverage provided by the AMA/Standard Insurance Company for $37.00

This funding helps provide supplementary support to medical students who have been invited to present the results of their research efforts at a national conference within the US or Canada. To ensure that many students can be supported through this fund, the maximum amount of funding available per student is $500 to cover:

• Economy round trip airfare
• Conference registration fee
• Abstract submission fee

Only one student per project will be funded.  Requests must be submitted to OSA at least 30 days BEFORE the conference date.

Download the Student Travel Support for Research Presentation Request Form (not accessible from the Chrome browser) and submit the completed form along with the supporting documents to Sandy Liu at sandyliu@hawaii.edu.
