ISTG Future Trainers’ Fellowship Grant 2025 Now open
The Irish Surgical Training Group (ISTG) are delighted to announce that applications are open for the 2025 ISTG Future Trainers’ Fellowship Grant.
Created in 2024, this fellowship bursary aims to recognise a surgical NCHD who has made significant contributions to technical skills teaching and peer mentorship during their training. For 2025, a grant of up to €10,000 is available for an NCHD(s) embarking on post-CCST fellowship. Specific eligibility criteria and details on the application process are available through the ISTG website. The successful recipient(s) will be chosen by an independent committee based on the strength of their completed application form, CV, and consultant and peer references. Applications are welcome from both HST and non-scheme candidates. The closing date is April 31st 2025.
The Future Trainers’ Fellowship Grant will be presented at the 2025 ISTG Silver Scalpel Award Dinner in June. The inaugural Future Trainers’ Fellowship Grant was shared by Mr Noel Donlon and Mr David Brinkmann.
