A los miembros asociados Junior de Amcemig y de la IHS se les invita a que participen enviando su documentación para Headache trainee Programme 2020.
The IHS aims to encourage physicians from countries listed as World Bank Lower-, Lower-Middle- and Upper-Middle-Income countries to visit a specialised headache institution abroad and actively increase knowledge on headache disorders and specialised headache management. It is also intended to spread this knowledge to their home countries without headache infrastructure or expertise. After a clinical training period of up to 12 weeks at a headache centre abroad the award holder is encouraged to return to his/her country of origin in order to apply the acquired knowledge, thus contributing to the advance of patient management locally. Within a supporting phase of 12 weeks the fellow is afterwards asked to present or discuss cases from their home clinical centres to the headache specialist.
Funding is provided for 8−12 weeks at the host institution.
The applicant can communicate well in the language of the host country or in English if the host is agreeable.
The award is designed to provide funding to cover the fellow’s salary costs, travel and living expenses based on the local economic context of where the fellowship is taking place. The maximum amount of the total grant is US$ 10,000.
The applicant must declare in advance to the IHS Education Committee if he/she will benefit from any other source of financing to complete the programme, and also declare any funding received after being awarded the programme.
