Resident/Clinical Fellow Trainee Research Grant (RCFTRG)
Resident/Clinical Fellow Trainee Research Grant Program

Residents and clinical fellows can access up to $2,000 (plus an additional $780 as an in-kind contribution for WCHRI Biostat Services, if relevant) to carry out an independent research project. The proposed work must be within the initial stages of development and should be within the applicant's ability to execute independently, within the time available, and under the guidance of the proposed supervisor/mentor. Awardees may hold this grant once per eligible program type.
