The 2018 Industrial Ecology Gordon Research Conference and Gordon Research Seminar will be held in Les Diablerets (Switzerland) during the week of May 19–25, 2018. There will be approximately 18 registration-fee grants for US young scientists (Ph.D. students and early PostDocs). Furthermore, currently funds are raised for young scientists from developing countries for grants, including registration and travel support (number grants not yet clear). Costs that will be covered are registration fees, including conference admission, room and food (GRC: 1,250 $ (shared room), GRS: $295 ( shared room)) and, in the case of students from developing countries, also travel support.
