IAU General Assembly 2027 Participation Grants
International Astronomical Union
Closes
Participation grants for the 2027 IAU General Assembly can support registration, accommodation, travel and childcare. Selection considers the applicant’s scientific contribution, the relevant committee’s abstract assessment, need, career stage and access to other funding. Applications close on 15 January 2027 at 23:59 CET. Submit all abstracts and register before applying through the official platform in English. Grant applicants may defer payment while awaiting the decision, using the organizer’s stated registration procedure. Decisions are scheduled for 30 April 2027.
RAS grants normally contribute £250–£1,000 toward conference or meeting travel, registration and subsistence. Matching-funding applications must be evidenced; student support normally covers at most half the costs. Applicants must provide a submitted or planned talk/poster abstract. Meetings must occur between six weeks and six months after the assessment deadline. The current pilot accepts applications continuously and assesses small grants at four annual cut-offs; the next is 30 September 2026. Applications after a cut-off move to the next round. This current overview supersedes the older tw
Max and Lillie Sonnenberg Doctoral Conference Travel Grant — Round 2, 2026
University of Cape Town
Closed
Round 2 is for doctoral researchers presenting at in-person conferences between November 2026 and April 2027. Applications close on 4 October 2026 through UCT’s PeopleSoft Student Portal. Awards contribute to travel, registration and conference-day subsistence. Local and specified SADC conference support is capped at ZAR 10,000; the overall maximum is ZAR 32,000. The grant does not normally fund the full trip. Applicants must secure remaining costs, provide proof of paper acceptance before payment and submit a post-conference report. At most one local and one international grant may be awarded
CaImAn: large-scale batch and online analysis of calcium imaging data
Andrea Giovannucci · University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Advances in fluorescence microscopy enable monitoring larger brain areas in-vivo with finer time resolution. The resulting data rates require reproducible analysis pipelines that are reliable, fully automated, and scalable to datasets generated over the course of months. We present CaImAn, an open-source library for calcium imaging data analysis. CaImAn provides automatic and scalable methods to address problems common to pre-processing, including motion correction, neural activity identification, and registration across different sessions of data collection. It does this while requiring minim
