**** Nigel W. John Scholarships to attend CGVC 2024 ****
We are pleased to announce five scholarships, sponsored by the giCentre, to cover
registration at CGVC 2024 in memory of our late colleague Prof. Nigel W. John.
The Scholarships aim to encourage a diverse group of early career researchers (especially
PhD students) to attend the conference for the first time and share ideas with peers.
To qualify, you must be a current student or recent graduate who is working or has worked
in a discipline that is cognate to CVCG. See

Application deadline: 14th June 2024.
