From the 1st of March 2010 the International Organizing Committee does not accept any requests for financial support

Financial Support
Thanks to the conference organizers and sponsors there are funds available for financial support of the scientists to attend the 8th International Wheat Conference. However, the funds are limited and will only be used to support participants who meet the following requirements:

• High scientific quality of the abstract submitted for conference
• Citizenship and residence in the developing country or country in transition
• The organizers will also give preference to younger scientists aged below 40 years
• Requests for partial financial support are more likely to be satisfied

Requests for financial support should be sent to the Local Secretariat by e-mail: 8iwc@vir.nw.ru
The letter must contain the following information:

• surname
• name
• age
• citizenship
• country of residence
• type of support (for registration fee, for transfer, for hotel accommodation)
• abstract in MS Word format according the conference requirements (see http://www.8iwc.org/presentations.asp)
