Dear Colleagues,



A limited amount of funding is available to support students who wish
to attend QCrypt, and lack other means of support. Today is the last
day to submit your application. Below is the detailed information for
the applicaiton.



Preference will be given to students who have been selected to present
talks or posters at QCrypt, and do not have other means of support.
Applications are encouraged from women students, underrepresented
minority groups, and institutions not traditionally represented at
QCrypt.



Most students will only receive partial support which will cover their
registration fee, though there will be a small amount of funding for
travel for those in most financial need.  In general, travel support
will only cover the lowest-cost options for travel, e.g., early
student registration, shared hotel rooms, and economy-class airfare.



How to apply for student travel

Send the following information via email to qcrypt2018 at ustc.edu.cn



A short, two-sentence explanation of why you would like to attend
QCrypt, and why you need funding. In particular, have you had a talk
or poster accepted at QCrypt? How much funding do you have from other
sources?

A brief resume or CV, listing your current institution, your level of
education, and any previous publications in the field

A statement from your advisor confirming your eligibility, and
recommending that you attend QCrypt. (This should be sent directly by
your advisor.)

Please send this information no later than July 7, 2017.



We will notify you about funding decisions on July 27, 2017.



Applications for funding will be reviewed by a committee consisting of:



Marcos Curty (University of Vigo)

Christian Schaffner (University of Amsterdam, CWI, QuSoft)

Qiang Zhang (University of Science and Technology of China)
