Applications are currently ongoing for the ISID/ESCMID Fellowship for Early Career Researchers in Europe.
In 2010, the International Society for Infectious Diseases (ISID) and the European Society for Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases (ESCMID) launched a joint fellowship program to promote international peer-to-peer cooperation and the sharing of scientific expertise and best practices. Early-career investigators from low- and lower-middle-income countries outside the region will travel to Europe for multidisciplinary clinical and laboratory training through this program.
The ISID/ESCMID fellowship grants effective candidates the opportunity to expand their research skills and learn from seasoned infectious disease experts while still in the early stages of their careers.

Benefits: US$7,500
