The GIPS is proud to participate in global outreach and education by partnering with the USCAP Foundation in their G40 program.
In the context of USCAP Foundation’s commitment to ensure that all pathologists have access to vital education, the Foundation is now accepting applications for the G40 Travel Awards for pathologists to attend the 2016 USCAP Annual Meeting in Seattle, Washington from March 12-18.
The G40 Travel Awards will provide 40 pathologists from underserved countries with travel grants, affording them the opportunity to attend the largest and most prestigious pathology meeting in the world.
The G40 Travel Awards will provide selected recipients:
- Economy coach airfare to and from Seattle, Washington
- Approximately four nights lodging at a conference hotel
- General meeting registration, but not to exceed the award of up to $2,500
Awards will be given to practicing pathologists who:
- Reside in an underserved country and have a demonstrable need for financial support to attend the USCAP Annual Meeting.
- Provide a resume and supporting letter from a Department Head or Supervisor attesting to the need for travel assistance and the potential benefit for attending the meeting.
The G40 Travel Awards are made possible by the Rodger Haggitt GI Pathology Society, the Florabel Mullick Endowment, the Leland Stoddard Endowment as well as through philanthropic donations to the USCAP Foundation.
Please submit the G40 Travel Award application by November 20, 2015. The winners will be notified by December 11, 2015.
