Description
The Heart Rhythm Society (HRS) offers travel scholarships to help health care professionals interested in electrophysiology attend its annual meeting. The program introduces participants to the specialty, builds collaborative relationships between early-career and experienced professionals, and creates mentoring opportunities for clinician-scientists and health care professionals early in training. It supports professionals whose work focuses on heart rhythm disorders in academic settings or private practice.
Alongside the HRS Travel Scholarship, the program includes the Dr. Kenneth Ellenbogen Research Award and the International Women in EP Travel Award. These awards promote global participation by supporting eligible attendees from low-income and lower-middle-income countries. Recipients of these two awards receive formal recognition at the meeting and through official HRS communications.
