Up to 2 months after the event takes place, you will need to provide us with the following:
Please include details of possible speakers. The SEB ethos is to include students and early career scientists, and you will be expected to select some of your talks from post-graduate/ early career researcher submissions.
The Society for Experimental Biology is committed to increasing bioscience equality and diversity. Our work in this area permeates through all our activities, and we would like to ask you to be mindful of this commitment when proposing speakers. In particular, for SEB events, there is an expectation that 33% of speakers will be female, with a minimum of 25%. There should also be a fair career stage and geographical representation.
Please note reimbursement of speaker travel allowances will be according to the funding arrangements for the SEB Annual Conference. The SEB will cover the registration for two invited speakers. In addition, you will receive up to £500 to assist with the travel and accommodation costs for the two invited speakers.
Please provide details of other sponsorship the conference is expecting to receive.
