Request for Applications: Rheumatology Research Foundation Medical Student Clinical Preceptorship

Request for Applications: Rheumatology Research Foundation Medical Student Clinical Preceptorship Upcoming Deadlines August 1, 2014 November 3, 2014 February 2, 2015 May 1, 2015 The purpose of the Medical Student Clinical Preceptorship is to introduce students to the specialty of rheumatology by supporting a full-time clinical experience. This preceptorship is not designed to replace a clinical clerkship in rheumatology. Programs should be designed as a “shadow” experience with the student observing the preceptor. The student should not be expected to perform independent patient management. Examples of such experiences would primarily include observing patient contact in the clinical office, accompanying the preceptor on rehabilitation facility visits, hospital rounds and/or conferences at the preceptor’s institution. Award Amount: $2,000 for a four-week clinical preceptorship or $4,000 for an eight-week clinical preceptorship, to be completed within one academic year. All applications must be submitted by 5:00 PM ET on the deadline day through WizeHive at http://app.wizehive.com/apps/preceptorships For more information about this award, please contact Ashley MacDermott, Coordinator Awards and Grants at [e-mail].
