2012 Codman Fellowship in Neurotrama and
|
|
Codman has established an annual grant/stipend of $40,000 to support a fellowship in the area of basic or applied clinical research in the field of neurotrauma and/or critical care. The grant will be competitively awarded to a neurosurgery resident in training, or within two years of finishing training, from an accredited North American program and is intended to support either one year's salary or a predetermined research proposal that can be accomplished in a one-year time frame. The fellowship may be undertaken at any North American or European center with an established reputation in either clinical or basic research for head injury, spinal cord injury or the important issues in critical care pertinent thereto. The fellowship is not intended to support advanced clinical training in these areas. It is expected that the research accomplished during this fellowship would be of a caliber to result in one or more publications in appropriate refereed journals. As a requirement of funding, the applicant will present completed research as a special lecture at either the AANS or CNS Annual Meeting Joint Section program. |
