Overview

The DPP Student Participation Grant, offered by the American Physical Society, aims to support students presenting their research at the annual Division of Plasma Physics meeting. Eligible applicants include Ph.D. and undergraduate students engaged in plasma physics research. Advisors can apply for one student, ensuring the grant is necessary for participation. Preference is given to first authors, enhancing their chances of receiving funding. This initiative fosters academic growth and encourages student involvement in the field.

The American Physical Society (APS) is a nonprofit membership organization working to advance and diffuse the knowledge of physics through its outstanding research journals, scientific meetings, and education, outreach, advocacy, and international activities. APS represents more than 50,000 members, including physicists in academia, national laboratories, and industry in the United States and throughout the world.
The American Physical Society Division of Plasma Physics (APS DPP) is offering a limited number of student participation grants to enable DPP student participation at the annual meeting. This offer applies to students who participate and who present their research at DPP.
