Clinical Department Visit Grant

These grants have been established to assist Clinician-in-Training members to visit clinical departments other than those within their rotation, in order to see endocrinology practised in a different setting.

Eligibility

Applications will only be considered if submitted by a member of the Society for Endocrinology. Clinician-in-Training members may apply if they hold a minimum of six months’ membership and have not yet completed their training.  Associate members may apply if they hold a minimum of 12 months’ membership.  It is anticipated that the applicant will normally be an academic or academic-related staff member. If not, a letter of support is required by the principal investigator or clinical team leader.

Value: Up to £2,000 per grant
Deadlines: None - continuous applications throughout year
