ABACBS Postdocs are running a session that overlaps slightly with COMBINE on the Monday - so if you're booking come along to COMBINE for the rest of the day and support the COMBINE talks / posters - then join us for the Postdoc event which runs into the general welcome event!
Just a reminder that our early bird rate runs out on Mon 16 Oct so make sure you register for the @abacbs conference! Missing out would certainly be so unpheasant and hawkward! 🤣🏖️🐨🤩

Travel scholarships were typically available for PhD students attending COMBINE (and still are, so if you are a PhD student apply as well!) but are now extended to include postdocs who also might be lacking independent funding.
