ICSMV 2026

Students Grant

The SMCTSM actively promotes student participation in our annual meeting so they can benefit from the opportunity to interact with experienced researchers who present their research advances. At the plenary talks, the students have a unique opportunity to grasp the status and topics directly from leading scientists. Students participating in our meeting also have a chance to learn or reinforce valuable knowledge with selected short courses. By supporting students’ participation in the SMCTSM activities, we contribute to their academic formation and plant the seed for a new generation of researchers and scientists who will push the boundaries of science for the benefit of our society.
