The U.S. Ice Drilling Program (IDP) invites applications for a National Science Foundation-sponsored opportunity for early career scientists, postdoctoral researchers, and PhD students for travel support to the 2021 Ice Core Young Scientists (ICYS) and International Partnerships in Ice Core Sciences (IPICS) Open Science meetings. These meetings will convene 10-15 October 2021 in Crans-Montana, Switzerland.

Applicants must be currently employed by a university or research institution within the U.S. Underrepresented minorities and those from minority-serving institutions are especially encouraged to apply.

Successful applicants will receive reimbursement toward their conference registration, air and ground travel, and lodging costs up to a maximum of $3,615 U.S.; the exact amount will depend on the number of qualified applicants. Applicants must plan to attend both the IPICS and the ICYS meetings. Qualified applicants will receive confirmation of their maximum potential reimbursement amount from IDP by 1 June 2021. Reimbursement based on receipts will be issued soon after the meeting.

Applications must include, as a single PDF document:

  • A brief one-page curriculum vitae that includes your name, current position, affiliation, contact information, education, and publications;
  • Listing of estimated travel costs;
  • A one-page description of how you will contribute to the IPICS and the Ice Core Young Scientists meetings, and what you will do, within two months after the meetings, to use findings from the meetings in materials you will produce to inspire your students and your community in STEM science.

Applications must be submitted via email to Icedrill [at] Dartmouth.edu with the subject “Application for Early Career Travel.”
