Junior Faculty Scholarship
Application Deadline: 1 April 2025
The International Eosinophil Society (IES) is proud to announce the introduction of two highly competitive Junior Faculty Scholarships for the Congress. This initiative is designed to recognize and support early-career scientists, clinicians, and clinician-scientists who have demonstrated significant achievements in their research but may face financial barriers to attending the Congress.
These scholarships offer a unique opportunity for junior faculty members who may not have an abstract to present but are eager to engage with leading experts in the field and further their professional development. With only two scholarships available, this honor is both highly competitive and prestigious.
