Introducing GlomCon's New Scholarship Programs for Advancement in Glomerular Diseases Education and Research.
GlomCon Scholarships
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new Scholarship Program designed to cultivate innovation, education, and international collaboration in training and research in glomerular diseases.
Recognizing the financial challenges some of our dedicated trainees and professionals may encounter, we are committed to lowering these barriers and fostering accessibility to our resources and programs.
1
Educational Scholarship
This scholarship aims to improve access to knowledge. We will provide free access to our acclaimed Fellowship Training Program to a select number of individuals worldwide (based on funding availability and economic considerations). This opportunity is mainly targeted at those who exhibit passion and commitment in glomerular diseases but are restrained by financial limitations.
2
Research Scholarship
Innovation fuels progress in medical science, and we want to keep that flame burning. This scholarship offers seed funds to pilot projects that hold promise for breakthroughs in the understanding and treatment of glomerular diseases. If you have an idea that needs support to get off the ground, this scholarship could be your launching pad. Details about this program, including the application and selection process, will be announced in fall 2023.

Travel
Scholarship
Recognizing the value of the cross-pollination of ideas and practices across geographical boundaries, we are offering travel scholarships for trainees involved in GlomCon’s research initiatives. This scholarship supports travel costs associated with attending relevant conferences, symposiums, or research collaborations, promoting knowledge exchange and professional growth. The 2023 Travel Scholarship is provided to trainees (undergraduates, medical students, residents, and fellows) who are contributing to the Natural History of Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) Study.
