ISCB is pleased to offer registration fellowships to any member in good standing with priority going to members from low or middle-income countries as well as students and postdoctoral fellows to attend the ECCB2020 virtual conference. Funding sources for registration fellowships are very limited and we regret that we may not be able to fund all applicants.
