The International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH) runs Reach-the-World Fellowships for junior clinicians and researchers from selected Reach-the-World countries. Fellows study at host institutes recognized for expertise in thrombosis and hemostasis, developing knowledge and skills in medical care, laboratory methods, research, or a combination of these areas. Financial support helps cover travel, accommodation and living expenses during the placement.
The program considers the feasibility of the training, the suitability of the host institute and the potential for continued collaboration between institutions. Applicants develop training objectives and timelines, with attention to how the skills gained will benefit their home institute. The ISTH Education Committee and its appointed review subcommittee oversee selection, and fellows document completed training through an end-of-training report.
