XRMS is pleased to announce that partial support is available for a limited number of graduate students with demonstrated need. Support will usually be in the form of a waiver of registration fees, and, in a few special cases, help with lodging expenses at Stanford Guest House or Stanford campus housing.

To be eligible, the applicant must be a graduate student at a recognized institution, pursuing studies in the fields of particle physics, particle astrophysics, or cosmology, or a field which is closely related. If the applicant is not a citizen of the United States, applicants must contact Natalie Cramar (nac@slac.stanford.edu) regarding appropriate visa status before they apply.

To apply for support, please supply all the following information by September 1, 2011:

  • State what resources you have secured for attending XRMS 2011 and what additional support you need.
  • State why you want to come to XRMS 2011.
  • Provide an email of recommendation from your advisor, including your level of study and the topic of your research. (Please have your advisor email it to us directly.) Applications should be sent to nac@slac.stanford.edu. Incomplete applications will not be considered.

Awards will be announced by September 15th. Your registration fee will be refunded if you paid before September 15th if you are selected.
