NEED-BASED REGISTRATION WAIVERS

If the cost of registration presents a financial hardship, you may be eligible for a need-based registration waiver—ensuring that everyone has access to participate, regardless of financial circumstances.

CAREGIVER GRANTS

We are pleased to provide a limited number of caregiver grants to help attendees of the 2026 Molecular Genetics of Bacteria and Phages Conference toward dependent-care expenses that they will incur by attending the conference. Thanks to generous support from our sponsors, we are piloting a program to offset extra costs incurred by caregivers (such as parents or individuals or providing elder care). Any conference registrant is eligible, although priority will be given to early- to mid- career researchers and those submitting abstracts.

Applications may be submitted at any time, but note that those submitted by June 16, 2026 will receive decision by June 23, 2026.
