Summer 2024 Conference Funding Updates

  1. Starting July 1, 2024, all research-related conference travel funding provided to medical students by the Department of Medical Education will be processed through the new MSRO Conference Travel Funding process. The new process replaces the formerly separate applications and funding allowances through Student Council and MSRO.  
  2. Student Council will no longer be facilitating any conference funding applications.
  3. The new conference funding process, eligibility, required documents, reimbursement, etc… can be found on the MSRO Conference Travel Funding section on the MSRO SharePoint Site. 
  4. For conference travel after July 1, 2024, please start using the new MSRO Conference Travel Funding Application Form to apply for travel funding.  
  5. If you were approved for funding for a conference before July 1, 2024 through the old MSRO and/or Student Council funding process, please continue to use the old process of submitting your documents for reimbursement by email to Jackie Njegric (jacklyn.njegric@mssm.edu) 
  6. If you have any questions, please email the MSRO (medicalstudentresearch@mssm.edu) and Darinka Gadikota-Klumpers (darinka.gadikota@mssm.edu).
