Student travel fellowships

Travel fellowships will be available to assist with the travel expenses to the conference. A limited number of grants will be given to the winners of a competition among both undergraduate and PhD students. Citizens of any country may apply for a grant, but the priority will be given to Russian students.

Eligibility

Fellowships may be awarded to undergraduate and PhD students studying cognition and ready to present their research in the fields of psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, computer science and artificial intelligence, pedagogics, philosophy and anthropology. Research projects in other fields may be eligible as well if it is considered by the conference Program Committee as matching the conference topics.

Fellowships may be awarded to students who completed their one study in the field of cognitive studies. To apply for a travel grant, a student must submit these results as a conference abstract. The abstract will be reviewed and scored among all other abstracts submitted to the conference.

To apply:

• Submit your pre-registration form and your abstract until December 1, 2007;
• Submit your CV until December 1, 2007. The last page of the CV file should include a scanned copy of your student ID or a reference document from your University which proves that the applicant is currently an undergraduate or PhD student.

How to compose and submit your CV

The CV should be submitted in a PDF file.

An electronic submission system allows you to submit a CV only if you have already submitted at least a preliminary version of your abstract.

An informative CV includes the following points:

• brief biography (your last, first and middle names, date of birth, etc.);
• contacts (e-mail, phone number, personal web-page);
• education;
• research interests;
• a list of current and completed research projects, including those supported by grants;
• a list of publications;
• previous oral and poster presentations, participation in summer/winter schools;
• teaching;
• awards, including scientific competition prizes, personal grants and fellowships;
• volunteering (in labs, in organizing conferences and workshops, translations and any other).

It is recommended to write down each point in a separate paragraph with its own title. If some of these points are not applicable yet, you may omit it or indicate it as ‘Teaching experience: not yet’.

It is also recommended to put the lists of publications, conference presentations, research projects and awards in a reversed order, so that the most recent items appear at the beginning of the list. The only exception is education information, which is usually more readable in the usual chronological order.
