Education Bursaries

The CRAF provides bursaries for rheumatology trainees in Canada as well as for up to 10 medical students who have gone through the CRAF Summer Studentship Program to attend the Canadian Rheumatology Association Annual Scientific Meeting and the Residents’ Pre-course. The objective is to provide trainees an opportunity to hone their skills, further their careers, and develop skills and knowledge to better serve future patients.

Rheumatology residents are invited to apply for a CRA Foundation Education Bursary to attend the CRA Annual Scientific Meeting (ASM) and the Residents’ Pre-Course. Applying for the CRA Foundation Education Bursary is available to PGY4/PGY5 residents who are Ministry of Health (MOH) funded and current CRA members.

If you are a PGY4/5 and qualify for a CRA Foundation Education Bursary, please contact Madalyn Membreno at mmembreno@rheum.ca.

If you have participated in the CRAF Summer Studentship program and have been advised that you qualify for a CRA Foundation Education Bursary, please contact Mona Bosinceanu at mbosinceanu@rheum.ca.
