ISCA and Interspeech 2021 are jointly offering grants to students and young scientists, aged 34 and under in order to support their participation in the Interspeech 2021 Conference. For virtual attendance cases, each grant award includes early student registration and a 1-year ISCA student membership. In case of in-person attendance recipients will receive a cash amount to assist with the accommodation costs. If you are awarded one of the grants, the student registration will also cover one of your papers.
