Charles D. Kelman, M.D. Award
The Charles D. Kelman, M.D. Postdoctoral Scholar Award
The International Retinal Research Foundation recognizes the need to strengthen and expand the international pool of vision scientists who possess the scientific, technical, and professional skills required to perform independent research. Addressing this need, The Charles D. Kelman, M.D. Postdoctoral Scholar Award has been established to provide salary and research support in the amount of $35,000 per year for a postdoctoral scholar nearing the end of his/her training. By the end of this support, Kelman Scholars are expected to have gained the expertise necessary to engage in productive eye research related to the retina or macula, and successfully compete for extramural funding. It is anticipated that suitable candidates will be identified and nominated by established vision scientists.
Deadline for submitting nominations for The Charles D. Kelman, M.D. Postdoctoral Scholar Award is March 1, and will be forwarded for review to the IRRF Scientific Director, with final approval to come from the Board of Directors. All notifications will be provided in writing by May 1, with a July 1 funding date.
