American Society of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists

Travel awards of $595 each ($800 for intercontinental travelers) will be awarded to help defray travel expenses to participate in the annual ASIH meeting. A student may apply for an award in only one category (Ichthyology or Herpetology). The awards will be chosen by random draw. You are eligible for an ASIH travel award if:

• You are currently a student AND a member in good standing of ASIH

• You are presenting your research at the 2024 JMIH (oral or poster presentation)

• You have not previously received an ASIH travel award

You are eligible for an intercontinental award if you will be traveling to the meeting from a location that will require an intercontinental flight. Students attending North American universities are eligible for an intercontinental travel award if they will be traveling to the meeting directly from a field site on another continent. If you receive a travel award, you are obligated to work four one-hour shifts at the ASIH book raffle table during the meeting. Once you have completed your shifts, you can pick up your check from the book raffle coordinator. 

To be considered for this award for the 2024 Joint Meeting of Ichthyologists and Herpetologists, please submit your completed application form to the Travel Award Coordinator, Taegan Perez (taegan.perez@gmail.com) by May 15, 2024.
