Two bursaries of £500 are available.

Eligibility

The award is open to clinical radiology residents who hold a substantive training post in the UK and who will be attending RSNA in-person.

How to apply

To apply, please submit:

  •  A completed application form
  • The abstract submitted to RSNA 
  • Communication from the RSNA confirming acceptance of the paper or poster
  • Evidence of travel arrangements for in-person attendance

Bursaries will be awarded in a 'lottery-style' selection procedure. Applicants will be notified of the outcome shortly after the closing date. Successful applicants will be asked to submit a brief report after the RSNA meeting. 

All enquiries and application forms should be sent to [email protected]
