Research Awards and Career Grants
Through the RACP Foundation, we're able to offer financial support to Fellows and trainees pursuing careers in medical research. Over 50 different fellowships, scholarships and grants are available annually, totalling over $2.5 million in funding.
All applications across the different award categories will be assessed by review panels comprised of members of the College Research Grants Committee,
representatives from partner organisations, RACP Divisions, Faculties and Chapters, and other invited peer reviewers.
