Support Trainee Travel Awards 

Help trainees attend the SFG 2026 Annual Meeting through Travel Awards

This initiative opens doors for talented students and early-career scientists to participate, regardless of financial barriers.

These awards don’t just fund travel, they create opportunity, spark connections, and help shape a more inclusive and dynamic future for glycobiology.


Why It Matters

One of the most energizing highlights of the meeting is Glycopalooza, a lively, trainee-led program where emerging scientists showcase their work, build meaningful relationships with mentors and peers, and gain invaluable visibility.

For many participants, it’s a defining moment, and your support helps bring it to life.

To kick things off with momentum, Dr. Karin Hoffmeister, President of SFG 2026, will match the first $1,000 in donations designated for trainee travel awards—doubling the impact right from the start.
