The fellowships provide training and career development opportunities for ICS members to gain research and clinical experience at centres of excellence in the areas of ICS focus: bladder, bowel, and pelvic floor dysfunction. In keeping with the objectives of the ICS, priority was given to members from less economically developed countries, allied and non-medical health professionals, trainees, and recent graduates.
This year, as part of the ICS Fellowship programme, we were able to offer 5 “Pfizer International Scholarships” which was made possible through an educational grant from Pfizer. The scholarships are for short term placements for up to one month, with an award of $5,000. Previously we have not offered a fellowship for less than one month, but with Pfizer’s support we were able to provide this. These proved extremely popular and having received 20 applications it was a difficult task for the Awards Panel to select winners.
The winning team for the Emerging Research Grant will be announced shortly.
