Young researchers lacking the personal funds to attend conferences or other events may benefit from travel grants. Let us explore the ways in which travel grants couldpossibly help young researchers launch their owncareers.

Danish astronomer Tycho Brahe observed the movements of Mars, and based on his data, the Germanmathematician Johannes Kepler was able to identify the laws of planetarymotion. Young researchers today can receive travel grants to attend conferences, share presentations, or participatein other networking events. Through grants, early career researchers may be able to take advantage of opportunities not available elsewhere. Some countries that receive young researchers sponsored by travel grants include EU nations, the US, Turkey, and South Korea. Organizations sponsoring suchtravel grants include the Association of University Technology Managers (AUTM), Berkeley Law School, and UN institutions including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), UNESCO, UNITAR, andothers.
