UICC Technical Fellowships: Call for Applicants
ISOPP Members can apply for Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) Technical Fellowships. These fellowships provide funding for recipients to visit another centre to learn and be mentored in a skill that the pharmacist does not currently possess and will be of benefit to the recipient and their current institution. Applicants will be required to have their manager or a senior institutional administrator 'sign off' on their application. The funding varies with how far/where the recipient wants to travel to, but could potentially fund between 2-4 weeks of extramural training/mentorship.
More information on these Fellowships and how to apply can be found on the UICC website at: https://www.uicc.org/what-we-do/capacity-building/fellowships.
These fellowships are available year round, so you can apply at any time throughout the year. If you apply and are successful in receiving one of these Fellowships, please let ISOPP know via email at advocacy@isopp.org so we can share your success with the ISOPP Community.
UICC Technical Fellowships: Call for Mentors
ISOPP is partnering with the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) to facilitate the matching of Oncology Pharmacists wanting person-to-person training in specific areas that are relevant to cancer control activities and clinical management with mentors around the world willing to offer that training.
The UICC Technical Fellowships (UICC-TF) provide funding for successful applicants to travel to an extramural site to learn / gain experience from mentors that will be of benefit to both the applicant and his / her institution. Since its inception in 1976, UICC-TFs have contributed to the development of the professional capacity of over 2,500 UICC Fellows from over 110 countries. You can learn more at https://www.uicc.org/capacity-building/grants/fellowships/uicc-technical-fellowships.
To assist UICC in adjudicating applicants, ISOPP is compiling a list of Mentors with specific skills and experience who are willing to host a fellow Oncology Pharmacist. If you are willing to be a Mentor, please contact the Society Management Office via email at services@isopp.org. Thank you for your time and consideration, as well as for your contribution to advancing cancer care globally. We look forward to receiving your expression of interest.
