NZSSD is pleased to announce that in collaboration with the New Zealand Diabetes Research Foundation it will support studentships for $6000 (incl. GST) for the 2023/2024 summer.
Projects must be diabetes related and appropriate supervision needs to be provided by the host institution.
The supervisor must have been a member of NZSSD since at least 01 January 2022 and employed by a university, public hospital or other institution in New Zealand.
Supervisors are expected to find their own student if awarded the studentship. As such, supervisors should consider this before applying.
Any member can nominate a candidate. The nomination needs a sponsor within the Executive. Members of the executive are happy to be contacted with your recommended nominee's name.
