This is a cheap way to both enable a promising early-care researcher to expand their network and gain feedback on their work, and disseminate safety research findings to a relevant audience.

Usually I think costs for things like this should fall on the person’s employer but there were some bureaucratic issues that made this a non-starter in this instance.
