CAHR offers four doctoral scholarships, in partnership with the CIHR
2010-06-30Again this year, CAHR will fund four HIV Research Studentships, one in each of the following research tracks: Basic Science, Clinical Science, Social Science, Epidemiology/Public Health. The award is intended to provide special recognition to students who are pursuing a doctoral degree in Canada or abroad and whose main focus is on HIV/AIDS.
The 2010 CAHR awards are being conducted in partnership with the CIHR’s new Doctoral Research Award Program, which will be announced in August as part of CIHR’s latest ‘Priority Announcements’. The amount of each award will be $35,000 per year, for up to three years.
Applicants will have to apply through CIHR’s Researchnet prior to October 15. The award must be held in Canada and the primary research focus of the application must be in HIV/AIDS. The applicant must indicate a primary research track, although projects that indicate a multidisciplinary approach are strongly encouraged. The successful applicants will be notified early in the new year, and the scholarship term will begin May 1, 2011.
