Scientific Sessions Travel Grants
2025 Travel Grant Application is Now Closed
The ASE Foundation funds Council Travel Grants each spring for trainees and others to support their attendance at the ASE Annual Scientific Sessions. These grants are part of an ongoing effort by the Foundation and the Council Steering Committees to encourage individuals in cardiovascular specialties to focus on the respective echocardiography subspecialty and to recruit enthusiastic new members to the Councils.
By facilitating their attendance at the annual meeting, these grants provide recipients with a deeper understanding of the imaging field, and cultivate the development of meaningful mentoring relationships with established imaging faculty.
