📢 Student Bursary Abstract Submission Deadline Extended

The deadline for student bursary abstract submissions has been extended to 15 June 2026.

To ensure that all students have a fair opportunity to apply, and in light of recent technical challenges experienced during the submission process, we have extended the deadline. This will allow all eligible students sufficient time to submit their abstracts and be considered for a student bursary.

We look forward to receiving your submissions.
