Medical Education Travel Fund
Med Ed Travel Fund Re-Instated for 2022-23
OHMES is pleased to announce the re-instatement of the Medical Education Travel Fund for 2022-23. The Medical Education Travel Fund was temporarily suspended in 2020-21 due to university-wide budget cuts and travel restrictions due to the pandemic.
The OHMES Advisory Committee considered the status of the fund at their June 2022 meeting, and agreed to reinstate the fund for the 2022-2023 fiscal year. The committee has allocated $10,000 (up to $2,000 per award for those presenting their scholarship at a conference) for this purpose, which will continue to be administered by the Medical Education Travel Fund Review Committee and awards granted on a first-come, first-served basis.
The continuation of the Medical Education Travel Fund will be reviewed by the OHMES Advisory Committee on an annual basis.
