Pain - IASP fellowships 2015 ($ 100,000)

The International Association for the Study of Pain (IASP) invites applications for its John J. Bonica Trainee Fellowship. Deadline for submissions is May 31, 2015. The Fellowship was established in 1998 in memory of the founder of IASP to support training in all aspects of pain research. One 24-month fellowship is available per year. The IASP funds up to $ 50,000 per year for a period of two years. The trainee will generally be in an early stage of his or her career.

During the fellowship, the trainee will pursue either clinical research or basic science research under the guidance of a mentor at the institution of his or her choice. The fellowship is not intended to supplement or extend current training. Preference will be given to candidates who seek training outside their current institution. The stipend will be equivalent to a year's salary for a person of the trainee's qualifications at the selected institution. The stipend may not be used for indirect costs or for the purchase of supplies or equipment, including travel costs.
