Meeting Assistance Program

The Meeting Assistance Program was established in 2002 to allocate up to five (5) sponsorships of up to $2,000 (US$) each ($10,000 annually) for support of geochemistry sessions/symposia at any scientific conference of geochemical relevance.

Applications should be submitted to Seth Davis at seth.davis@geochemsoc.org and should include at a minimum:

• The name, institution and contact information of the symposium organizer(s)
• Symposium description
• Symposium budget
• Description of how the MAP funds will be used
• Description of how the symposium will acknowledge the MAP sponsorship

Applications are reviewed and approved by the Program Committee. Awards are distributed in United States dollars and must be distributed to an organization (not an individual). The applicant of a funded program should also expect to write up a post-symposium report for publication in Elements Magazine and/or Geochemical News.
