The Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) program was created by the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) to increase the number of biomedical and behavioral scientists from minority groups. The FASEB MARC Program provides funding for travel awards to support the participation of minority Faculty/Mentors and Students and Poster/Platform Presenters at selected scientific meetings and conferences. The awards help to defray meeting registration and travel-related expenses (lodging, transportation, per diem) associated with meeting/conference attendance. Travel awards are processed as reimbursements to the award recipients. An award recipient will be required to pay his/her meeting- and travel-related expenses first, and then request reimbursement from the FASEB MARC Program Office after completion of the meeting/conference. The deadline to apply for the FASEB MARC Awards is May 15, 2015.
