2010 Scholarship ApplicationPhysician-in-Training Scholarship
Through funding provided by the ACP Foundation, the ACP is offering up to forty scholarships to residents, fellows, and junior faculty members. Medical students will be considered as well. This $1500 reward will cover Pre-Congress and Congress Registration (Reduced rate of $450 for scholars), leaving $1050 for the scholarship recipient to use towards air, hotel, food and other meeting expenses. This is a great way for physicians to learn about venous disease and how to treat veins. When approved, scholars will receive a $1050 check at the Annual Congress. All scholars will be responsible for making and pre-paying for their travel and accomodations.
This year, our Annual Congress will be in Orlando, FL -Sea World. ACP is celebrating its 25th Anniversary. Please visit our Congress website for details.
The scholarship also includes a one-year "Member-In-Training" membership option which allows scholarship recipients to continue to receive exposure to phlebology after the Congress through subscriptions to Phlebology, Venous Digest, and VeinLine; access to the printed and online Membership Directory; and increased networking opportunities available in the ACP membership.
Eligible candidates include residents in ACGME-approved or AOA-approved residency programs, post-doctoral fellows, and junior faculty members in the first two years of appointment.
Travel Scholarship for International Applicants
The purpose of this award is to help individuals from outside the United States travel to study and learn additional phlebological techniques and procedures with their colleagues at the ACP Annual Congress.
Both International Members and Non-Members can apply.
The $2,500 (USD) award would help defray travel, accommodation, and registration costs.
Applicants cannot have previously attended the ACP Congress or other ACP activities.
"The ACP conference gave me the opportunity to see many techniques and advances in vein care that I would not have been exposed to any other way. I gained a new appreciation for the complexities of the disease processes and related patient care."
