ASPIRE aims to raise the level of research in Asia Pacific and we believe that one way is to encourage young researchers to present their work in a large meeting.
With that, ASPIRE launched the ASPIRE Young Investigator Award in 2016 to provide promising young investigators funding in support of quality research in ART as well as an opportunity for them to use ASPIRE Congresses as a platform to put forward their work.
Authors aged below 40 (on 1 May 2025; 40 years old is not applicable) from Asia Pacific are able to show their interest in application for this award during the abstract submission process. Applicants would need to present their work in person at designated oral or poster presentation sessions at the Congress.
TOP 5 Outstanding Young Investigators will be selected by the ASPIRE 2026 Scientific Committee.
