The Role of Mathematics and Computation in Systems and Integrative Biology
Reimbursement
The costs of all invited participants will be covered by a grant from the Division of Integrative Biology and
Neuroscience at the National Science Foundation. All reimbursements will
be processed through Utah State University. Participants should send
their travel information to us in advance to facilitate
reimbursement.
What Will be Covered
Allowable costs for participants in the workshop are:
- Round-trip airfare from their nearest major airport to Salt Lake City.
- Parking, shuttle, mileage costs to get to and from your `home' airport.
- Three or four days of lodging expenses at the University Inn on the USU
campus
(nights of March 26, 27 and 28 + March 29 if a Saturday stay is necessary).
- Three or four days of per deum .
- Shuttle costs from Salt Lake City to the University Inn (participants
should not have to pay for this; mention that you are with the Systems Biology
Workshop and your shuttle should be billed directly).
If you have some alternative travel arrangement that you would like to
organize (e.g. driving to USU with your own car) please contact Jim Powell regarding reimbursement.
Contact Person for Reimbursement
Participants need to send their travel information to Alison Pence as soon as possible.
Alison is the staff assistant designated to facilitate this workshop; she may
be contacted at (435) 797-2595 or by email at assist@math.usu.edu.
Information for Reimbursement
The following information must be sent by email to Alison Pence so that she can file a
travel authorization (TA) for participants. This TA is the mechanism by which
participants are reimbursed, and with a TA on file the traveller receives
additional insurance coverage through Utah State University. Therefore, for
safety and also to speed up reimbursement, please send Alison the following
information ASAP:
- Complete name
- Social Security Number
- Institutional affiliation and mailing address
- Dates of Travel
- Purpose: mention that you are a participant in the ``Systems Biology
Workshop''
- Contact information: phone and email
- Total cost of your flight to and from SLC airport
- Flight information: airline, when you are leaving, when you are arriving
- Any expenses (shuttle, parking, mileage) required to get to the airport
on the `home' end of your travel. If you must drive a significant distance
to the airport, please estimate the
roundtrip mileage.
- Number of days you will be staying at the University Inn here on campus.
The more exact the numbers provided above, the better, but please provide
estimates even if you don't know the exact number.
