attendee per each research group may be rewarded
with a travel grant. Young researchers
requesting to become members may only receive the
grant if the BITS Steering Committee has
provisionally given its approval to their candidature.
Grants
Each travel grant will amount to 300.00, which
will be credited to the bank account of selected
candidates after the conference and provided that
they effectively participated in the meeting.
