Student Registration Opportunities for ICNS
The Local Organising Committee for ICNS 2025 are delighted to announce that we have secured funding which enables us to offer a dramatically reduced registration fee for some PhD students who wish to attend the conference.
International PhD Students
The Novo Nordisk Foundation has provided funding that will enable 40 students to access the ICNS 2025 conference for a reduced fee of €60 per student (basic+). This applies to all PhD students, with the exception of those affiliated to institutes in Nordic countries who are covered by a Nordic model.

The selection and notification will be at the end of March. You should register as earlybird participant now and we will reimburse those people who are awarded the funding.
Nordic PhD Students
Nordic Neutron Scattering Programme (NNSP, funded by Nordforsk) has providing funding that will enable 67 students to access the ICNS 2025 conference with a waived conference fee. This applies only to students (undergraduate, Master’s and PhD) from Nordic countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, Faroes Islands, Greenland and Åland).
To apply:
- Register on the ICNS website and go to Submission/Abstract/submit poster abstract. If you do not have a profile, create one and submit an abstract with yourself as the presenter.
- Apply for NNSP support: On the Abstract submission portal, choose "Contact Information" and click "I would like to apply for the NNSP funding".
- Receive support: Applicants will receive a link from the conference office upon acceptance of an abstract in which they are the presenter. This link will allow free registration from the conference site.
