Subject: Item for topology mailing list From: Bill Dwyer Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2007 10:54:40 -0400 TRAVEL FUNDING FOR DJERBA CONFERENCE The NSF has provided a modest grant to support travel to the international conference in topology to be held in Djerba, Tunisia, October 20-23. The web page for the conference (DCAT 2007) is at http://www.math.univ-paris13.fr/~schwartz/dcat/ According to NSF policy, prospective US attendees have the first call on the funding, but a certain number of non-US participants can also be supported. We expect that the grant will be able to offer at best partial coverage for travel and living expenses. If you would like to request funding from this grant, please get in touch with Bill Dwyer for additional information. Note in particular that it is important to pay attention to NSF travel regulations, as documented in paragraph 761 of http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/manuals/gpm05_131/gpm7.jsp
