The scholarships specifically will support travel expenses incurred for the purposes of furthering research in an under-resourced setting. The successful Resident will be expected to submit a report to the President of the Fund following completion of the trip and/or submit for presentation of the research results at the Annual Meeting of the CSOHNS.
