Ruth,
Many associations have travel grants available so they're a good place to
start. You may also want to do a general web search for "travel grants." A
lot of them came up there. Many are geared to research areas, so it's
difficult to know what will work best for you. and you didn't mention
whether this is domestic or foreign travel. Here are a couple that are more
general, or offer more options to get you started:

International Research and Exchanges Board (IREX)
Grant Opportunities for U.S. Scholars
Short-Term Travel Grants
<http://www.irex.org/programs/stg/index.htm>

American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (ASBMB) Travel Awards
Undergraduate Faculty Travel Awards
<http://www.faseb.org/meetings/eb2001/call/asbmb_award.pdf>

Council for International Exchange of Scholars (CIES)
Fulbright Distinguished Chairs Program
<http://www.cies.org/cies/us_scholars/DisChairs/>

AAS International Travel Grants
