The American Society for Virology (ASV) seeks renewal of a multi-year block grant to provide partial support for predoctoral students, postdoctoral fellows, and U.S. teachers of undergraduate virology to travel to and participate in the annual ASV scientific meetings in 2021-2025. The ASV 2021 meeting will be held July 17-21 at the Palais des Congrès de Montréal, Quebec, Canada, in conjunction with local hosts from McGill University; the subsequent 4 meetings will be held at US venues. Travel awards are awarded with emphasis on participation by women and underrepresented minority virologists, with the goal of benefiting future virology research. Pre- and postdoctoral awards will be $500 each, and teacher awards $1,000 each, for a total of $14,000 per year. Members of the ASV Travel Award Committee will evaluate the applications. Pre- and postdoctoral awardees are selected based on an abstract of their work for presentation in workshops or poster sessions. Teachers are selected based on an essay explaining the benefit of ASV meeting attendance to their teaching (and research, if applicable). In addition to announcing the travel award program to its members, ASV promotes it to ~100 U.S. undergraduate institutions serving primarily underrepresented populations. Post- meeting evaluations are required of awardees and obtained anonymously, focusing on how they benefited from participation. The ASV meeting provides an opportunity for U.S. junior scientists to meet and interact directly with senior virologists in symposia, workshops, poster sessions, and special satellite symposia covering the most recent developments in virus research. These include studies of viruses of humans, animals, plants, invertebrates and prokaryotes, and the scope spans topics such as virus genetics, replication, structure, pathogenesis, ecology, evolution and emergence, disease control, virus-host interactions, and new technologies. The ASV is the largest general virology meeting in North America, enhancing opportunities for cross-fertilization of ideas and technologies across the entirety of the virus world. In addition to scientific sessions, over the last 10 years the meeting has included opportunities for trainees and teachers of undergraduate students to network with and receive mentoring from virologists with experience in academia in both research and primarily undergraduate institutions, industry, government research, publishing, clinical virology, and other scientific careers through career, education, and communication workshops and lunch discussion tables with senior scientists. The ASV annual meeting positively impacts U.S. efforts in public health and research needed to effectively combat viral diseases. The ASV has actively and successfully increased the diversity of speakers and participants, and it has a strong ethos of promoting the development of the next generation of virologists through ample opportunities to actively present their research and participate in ASV. Travel awards to trainees and teachers of undergraduate students are the foundation of this mission of ASV. .
