CGM Travel Fellowships

The Center for Genetic Medicine Travel Fellowship Awards provide funding to PhD students and postdoctoral fellows to present the results of their genetics-related research at national or international scientific meetings. The awards are competitive, with approximately 25-30 percent of the applications funded after consideration by a faculty review committee.

There are three application cycles each year. At the end of the academic year in June, CGM fellowship award recipients are invited to present their work at the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University's Annual Posters and Wine Session.

The fall application deadline is November 6, 2009. Please turn in your completed application no later the 5:00pm on November 6th, 2009 to Denise Marshall, 312.695.1392 or d-marshall4@northwestern.edu.
