TAU announces recipients of the Global Research & Training Fellowship (GRTF)
Five TAU students were awarded fellowships to study in American and European laboratories
The Global Research & Training Fellowship (GRTF) was launched in May 2013 to support research visits of up to three months by TAU scientists to laboratories in the United States, Europe and around the world. The GRTF is made possible through a generous gift from the Bedford, NY-based Naomi Prawer Kadar Foundation, known as “The Naomi Foundation.” The GRTF fellowships are open to TAU graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and senior team members currently working in research groups at the Sackler School of Medicine and/or the George S. Wise Faculty of Life Sciences.
There are three annual submission cycles to GRTF Fellowships. The calls are published through the TAU-BIOMED mail list and on the web sites of the two Faculties. The latest round ended in September, and the following five students were chosen for fellowships in international labs.
