64th Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics

October 17-21, 2022 • Spokane, Washington 

DPP Grants

The American Physical Society (APS) and the American Physical Society Division of Plasma Physics (APS-DPP) offer several grants.
 
Nominees and award and officeholders are expected to meet standards of professional conduct and integrity as described in the APS Ethics Guidelines. Violations of these standards may disqualify people from consideration or lead to revocation of honors or removal from office.

Applications Open: Tuesday, June 28, 2022

Application Deadline: Friday, July 29, 2022

This year the American Physical Society Division of Plasma Physics (APS DPP) is offering a limited number of student participation grants to enable DPP student participation at the 2022 annual meeting in Spokane. This offer applies to students who participate and who present their research at DPP 2022.

Participation grant recipients must be currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program, or an undergraduate program at a U.S. or international institution and conducting cutting-edge research in plasma physics.

If funds allow, a few highly qualified national high school students will also be considered for a DPP participation grant.

Advisors of prospective candidates should email a one-page statement of need, motivating the request for a student grant, to the DPP 2022 Program Chair Karl Krushelnick with a copy to the DPP Administrator Saralyn Stewart. The statement of need should include a brief description of the student’s research and how participation at DPP 2022 would benefit the student. The statement should thoroughly justify the student’s qualifications for a grant.

The application deadline is Friday, July 29, 2022.

Include the student’s information:

  • First Name and Family Name
  • Affiliation
  • Mailing Address
  • Email Address
  • Presentation Title (denote oral or poster)

DPP Policy: An advisor must apply for only one student and a request is appropriate only if the student would not participate, or have difficulty participating, without a student grant. A student who is first author is more likely to receive a grant than a student coauthor. The email message from the advisor should thoroughly justify the student's qualifications for a grant.

The selected student recipients will be informed by Tuesday, August 16, 2022.
