ISA – Guidelines for Support of Meetings
ISA will support not more than three meetings per year, in at least two continents. This limit is flexible depending on the available funds and the merits of the meeting.
The deadline for support is 9 months prior to a meeting. Late applications will be reviewed on a case by case basis, and support can be given if there is adequate justification for the delay in submission of the application and according to the merits of the meeting.
The Executive Committee will review and decide on support for meetings. The decision will be ratified and formally approved by the Executive Council.
The ISA support is for travel grants (for example in the form of waiver of registration costs), to be awarded preferably to clinical trainees or basic-clinical investigators and/or participants from economically weaker countries.
The awardees need to submit an abstract to be presented (poster or otherwise) at the meeting.
In announcements and in the program of the meeting, the support by ISA should be clearly acknowledged, including presentation of the ISA logo.
Shortly after the meeting, ISA expects to receive a report of the meeting, to be published on this website.
A core activity of the International Society of Andrology (ISA) is the organization of the International Congress of Andrology, which is held approximately every four years and serves as the Society’s principal forum for scientific exchange, education, and collaboration. These congresses bring together researchers, clinicians, and trainees from around the world to present advances in andrology, discuss emerging challenges, and shape future directions of the field.
In addition to its flagship congresses, ISA actively supports regional and international meetings related to andrology, fostering global engagement, and promoting the dissemination of high-quality basic and clinical research across diverse scientific communities.
