Online application form

To process your application, you must complete the online form in the next page, following the guidelines provided below.

All fields marked with a red asterisk in the form are mandatory—pay particular attention to the e-mail address provided. In some fields, specific details are included; please follow the examples attentively.

Upon completion of your application, you will receive a reference number. If the online system does not present this number for you to view, the submission was not successful. Keep your reference number for future use.

Abstract Format

Submission of an abstract is mandatory. You may use an abstract of an almost completed or recently completed thesis, of your current work, or of future projects. The selection procedure will take into consideration also this abstract. Of the selected scholars, some will be invited to make an oral presentation. The abstract should be in English and structured as follows.

Title. The title must start in uppercase and continue in lowercase, except for conventional terms (ATP, DNA, NFκB, etc). Example:
   This title is written correctly
   This Title is Not Properly Written
   ALSO THIS TITLE IS WRONG

Authors. If more than one author, underline your name and use commas to separate the names; do not use 'and' before the last author. Write the names as initials, followed by the surname. If more than one affiliation, use sequential superscript numbers to identify each institution. Example:
   M. Rossi¹, J. Doe², F. Bloggs^1,2
   1Dept Biomembranes, Golgi & Veratti Univ., Pavia, Italy
   ²Dept Bioblast Analyses, Altmann Univ., Leipzig, Germany

Abstract text. Keep the abstract text to within 2500 characters, spaces included. If this text is too long, your abstract submission will fail. This text should be in a single paragraph and may cite up to a maximum of two journal references.

Synoptic CV

The CV is an integral part of your application. Please provide a synoptic CV on a single A4 page, as a PDF file; longer CVs will be discarded. This file can be uploaded through the application form.

Letter of recommendation

In order to be considered, applications need to be complemented by two letters of recommendation, one of which must be from the applicant's mentor. These should be e-mailed—as PDF files, within 19 December 2011—to IAS.2012@azuleon.org. The PDF files should be labelled as Applicant'sSurname_ReferenceNumber_IAS2012.pdf—e.g., Smith_a1b2_IAS2012.pdf.
