​

The first of these will support attendance at the upcoming USCAP meeting in New Orleans. Further bursaries will be available for specific meetings to support attendance. Keep an eye on www.issp.ie. Feel free to alert any trainees who you think would be interested in this bursary.

​

Who can apply? Any histopathology trainee in a post across the island of Ireland is encouraged to apply.

​

How do I apply? Submit a request stating why you want to go to the meeting, 300 words maximum. It is not required to have submitted an abstract but assessment will be weighted toward an accepted abstract.
