GENERAL INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS

The American Dermatologic Association is pleased to announce its Medical Student Fellowship Program offering:

• $700 monthly stipend for a maximum of three (3) months
• Awards to start June 1, 2008

Preference will be given to applicants seeking to work in a department or division of dermatology. The work undertaken must be done at a university or college in the United States or Canada. Work done and research experience gained by recipients cannot be used as a credit for a degree. Awards will be made to U.S. citizens or Canadian citizens or candidates lawfully admitted to U.S. or Canada for permanent residence.

Applications relating to proposed research involving human subjects must be accompanied by institutional approval of the type required by the U.S. Public Health Service.

An original application and six (6) copies (7 total) of this application must be submitted. Any applications received without these copies will not be considered. This application must be signed by the sponsor and department chairperson unless they are one and the same.

A follow-up report of approximately 1 to 2 pages (not a manuscript for publication) is required within forty-five (45) days following completion of fellowship. Failure to comply will forfeit future awards to applicants from the sponsoring institution. Except under extraordinary circumstances, no more than one award will be granted to any school. Therefore, department chairpersons should assign priority ranking if more than one application is submitted.

Application Deadline:
April 15, 2008
(Applications received after this date will not be considered)
