The Edmond J. Safra Fellowship in Movement Disorders is open to established movement disorder centers worldwide and seeks to support promising MD and MD/PhD applicants. MJFF will award five two-year fellowships ($90,000 per fellow per year, $180,000 total). These funds may cover the fellow’s stipend, benefits and travel allowance. No indirect costs may be claimed for this award.
To allow centers time to identify the most competitive recipients, MJFF will award funding directly to qualified centers. Centers must then nominate prospective fellows for final review by MJFF. This nomination will include submission of the fellow’s CV to apply and a recommendation from the assigned mentor. Individual fellowship applicants are not eligible but are encouraged to inform institutions about this funding opportunity.
