International Menopause Society
Announces New Research Bursary for Young Researchers

Are you always looking for funding to support your research projects?

Are you interested in the menopause, adult women’s health or the basic science of hormone action?

Are you under 40 years old* and medically qualified?

If you can answer yes to all three questions you might be interested in a bursary of up to $20,000 per annum for two years to help fund your research.

The International Menopause Society (IMS) is keen to encourage young researchers in these speciality fields of medical research and is pleased to announce this new round of bursary awards.

Dr David Sturdee, chairman of the bursary subcommittee and under who’s IMS presidency the award was initiated, said...’I was very fortunate to have the opportunity of two years of funded research during my gynaecological training, which gave my whole career an added impetus. Funds for research are less available now, so IMS wishes to give such an opportunity to the new generation of young and keen investigators, and to encourage much needed research in the field of menopausal and adult women’s health.’

If you are interested or know of a work colleague who is looking for support to do their own research, please click here for more information on our website. 

The closing date for the current application process is March 31st 2014.
