Overview
ASME and Wiley-Blackwell have again generously identified funding of up to £2,000 to support a travelling fellowship.
The aim of the fellowship is to provide financial support to an individual to gain further experience and understanding of the field of clinical teaching by visiting an educational or health institution for their own professional and personal development, sharing insights with the host institution, and undertaking some form of project – which may be either a research study or an educational development and evaluation.
