The 12th SCAR Open Science Conference "Diving into Antarctic Science: Making Waves for the Future" will be held in Oslo, Norway, from 8-19 August 2026. The SCAR Open Science Conferences offer scientists from various disciplines and countries the opportunity to present their work, network, and participate actively in SCAR’s scientific activities.
The call for abstracts is now open, and the abstract submission deadline is 28 February 2026 at 23:59 UTC. See the meeting website for details.
US-SCAR has National Science Foundation (NSF) funding to support travel awards for US scientists to attend the meeting. Applications for partial travel support (e.g., airfare, ground transportation, accommodation, or meeting registration) will be accepted from students, postdoctoral researchers, and other scientists at US institutions. Funding cannot be provided to anyone at a non-US institution. Preference will be given to early-career investigators (students and those within 5 years of completing a PhD).
The deadline for travel award applications is 30 April 2026. See the travel award application for more information.
