Great! I take that as a yes.

£1800 Seems a bit high though. Expedia has flights and hotels at around £1100 for the week and student registration fees are $310CAD

How about we say £1500 and ask students to apply for external bursaries (Brain etc.)? That’s a useful exercise anyway.

Or am I being mean? We do have the cash, so I’m open-minded on that.

Best Wishes,

Krish

I support too – and my student Becki estimated £1,806, so very close to Paul’s!

Am in support of this Krish. Registration, Flights and 7 nights accommodation will come to around £1800 per student is my guess.

Best Regards

Hi everyone,

As everyone knows, Biomag is only every two years and the MRC have not directly funded any student conference travel costs in this DTG part of the grant - we are expected to cover those from the Partnership Grant itself.

Unfortunately we did not specifically ask for a pot for PhD student travel costs.

However, I’d like to propose that we fund our eight students this year to go to Biomag, if they are planning to go. It would be great to have as many of us there as possible.

We are going to underspend our funding allocation for the first year anyway, so we can cover a reasonable spend per student.

Any objections? Should we assign fixed amount per student (my preference)? If so, how much?

Krish
