This initiative is open to basic and clinician researchers with at least 2 years and no more than 5 years research experience following PhD (or exceptionally, MD). During the time spent as a scholar, the work is predominantly basic laboratory research with any exposure to patients being as an observer. Clinician researchers should have completed their clinical training.

Up to 2 scholars will be selected by the Society for Endocrinology Awards Committee following shortlisting and interview during the week commencing 22 February 2010. Successful candidates attend the US Endocrine Society meeting and undergo a further interview process by the host institutions they have identified. An application form will be available shortly at the link below. Applications are invited by 16 January 2010.
