This is from the CHMINF list. Three awards of $1,000 are available to graduate and postdoctoral students in chemical information (including cheminformatics, etc.):

This is a reminder that the deadline for applying for the CINF-CIC Scholarship Awards (see below) to be awarded at the San Francisco ACS meeting is May 5th. At that time the required short abstracts have to be submitted to OASYS. If you send in an abstract to the CINF poster session for consideration of the award, please send me a short e-mail indicating that you have done so. Thank you.

With best regards,
