In order to encourage students to participate in the biennial International Conference on Harmful Algae (ICHA), the U.S. National Office for Harmful Algal Blooms is happy to announce awards to cover registration costs for ICHA2021 Mexico. Funding for this program is provided by NOAA and eligibility is restricted to graduate and undergraduate students working in the U.S.
Priority will be given to individuals who have never received a travel award from the US National HAB Office, and those who are presenting their research. Please note that if you are selected to receive an award, you will still need to apply for ISSHA membership ($25 for two years) prior to registering for the conference. This is a separate fee that will not be covered through this awards program. You can apply for membership here:

Please be sure to submit your abstract before applying for this award. Abstracts can be submitted here:
