Organization

To organize an EWASS meeting, please consider the information below:

Grant Request

A limited number of EAS travel grants are available for the EWASS meetings. They are mainly reserved to young participants and scientists from countries with limited resources. However, other participants may also apply (the decision will be made on the basis of the justification and the scientific contribution).

Note that EAS travel grants are restricted to members of the EAS by the end (Dec. 31) of the year preceding the EWASS. The grant usually covers only the registration fees, which will be paid directly by EAS to the EWASS organizers.

Please request an EAS funding only if you are certain that your available funds will not be sufficient.

Applications are only accepted through a web form accessible for EAS members by logging in.

The application form shall contain a justification of the grant request and a scientific abstract of a contribution to be given at the EWASS.

The deadline to submit an EAS grant is the deadline of the EWASS early registration at a reduced rate.
Decisions about the funding will be made afterwards.

EASColl

In order to promote medium size meetings in astronomy and astrophysics and related areas, the European Astronomical Society (EAS) has launched in 2011 a series of EAS Colloquia (EASColl) to provide a mechanism to exchange ideas and promote cross-fertilization of ideas between scientists working in Europe.

EASColl are intended to be medium-size meetings of 50 to 80 people dedicated to either established scientific domains or newly emerging fields of small/growing communities, which can not apply for support to the large EU Networks or qualify as International Astronomical Union Symposia (IAUS).

EASColl 2012

Astronomical Data Analysis VII
Cargèse, Corsica, 14 - 18 May 2012

Call for proposals

We are pleased to announce the second Call for Proposals to organise EAS Colloquia.

  • Deadline for submission: June 25, 2012
  • Selection by Council is expected to take place at their Council meeting at the Rome EWASS2012.
  • The funding is allocated for EASColl to be held the next calendar year, i.e., in the course of 2013.

Please read the description and goals of EAS Colloquia and write up your proposal using this application form to be submitted per e-mail to treasurer-eas @ unige.ch with CC to eas @ unige.ch.
