Description
The Research Traveling Fellowship, offered by the North American Spine Society (NASS), is designed to advance spine research by enabling spine professionals to spend at least five months participating in a research project at a facility other than their current institution. The fellowship emphasizes extended research-focused training, multidisciplinary collaboration, and the development of spine-related research skills. Funding is intended primarily to support travel and housing costs associated with the fellowship period. Recipients are expected to submit a report of their experience to NASS upon completion.
