For Residents or Fellows
Residents or fellows who have completed at least two years of post-graduate training in a surgical discipline are eligible to apply for the SIS Resident Fellowship Award. The purpose of this award is to provide the opportunity for a resident or fellow to spend one year in full-time research in the laboratory of a member of the Surgical Infection Society. The amount of this award is $50,000/year.
For All Fellowship Award Applicants
Decisions concerning the award will be announced at the annual meeting of the Surgical Infection Society. The SIS Fellowship Committee will review the applications and forward recommendations to the Council of the Surgical Infection Society who will make the final decision regarding the awards.
Letters of support from the endorsers, research sponsor, and department Chairperson must be included with the application. These letters should describe the facilities available for the applicant, sources of salary support, and a guarantee of protected time. The letters should summarize the significance of this project and the applicant’s qualifications. The letter from the departmental Chairperson must indicate that no Fellowship funds will be used for overhead and that all monies provided are specifically for the Awardee’s salary and direct research costs. Absence of this letter will exclude consideration of the application.
