Application Deadline: September 15, 2021 (for meetings Jan. 1st through June 30th)

  • For women chemists
  • Making their first presentation at a national or major meeting in the United States
  • Funds for meeting registration, travel, and accommodations

The ACS Women Chemists Committee (WCC) and Eli Lilly and Company sponsor a program to provide funding for undergraduate, graduate, and postdoctoral women chemists to travel to meetings to present the results of their research. Through this program, WCC and Eli Lilly and Company continue to increase the participation of women in the chemical sciences.

Awards are made on the basis of scientific merit and financial need. Funds may be applied only for registration, travel, and accommodations, and are restricted to travel to meetings within the United States. Grant funds are limited, but there are some funds designated for undergraduates. In additional to financial support, the award provides networking opportunities for recipients who attend an ACS national meeting.
