Dear Locators, this is the second announcement of grants for attending this year’s EWGLA meeting in Edinburgh, UK. These grants will cover your expenses up to a maximum of €750. Eligible expenses are costs for travel & accommodation and the conference fee. To apply, you have to be a EWGLA member and should send the following documents as a single pdf by e-mail to the EWGLA Board (ewgla-board at euro-online.org): - An extended abstract of at least two full pages, - Your CV, and - A letter of recommendation from your supervisor, if you are a PhD student. The deadline for applications is 19 January, 2018. Decisions about grants will be made by 2 March, 2018. We especially encourage young researchers and researchers from economically weak countries to apply. We would appreciate if you could forward this announcement to your PhD students in case they are not yet members of EWGLA and, of course, encourage them to become EWGLA members! If you have questions about the application or the grant, please do not hesitate to contact us.
