The CHS Dream of a Cure Summer Studentships provide Canadian medical or science students with the opportunity to gain hands-on research experience in the field of inherited bleeding disorders. Funded by the Canadian Hemophilia Society and the Hemophilia Research Million Dollar Club, these studentships aim to foster the next generation of researchers by supporting summer research projects that contribute to improved treatments and outcomes for conditions such as hemophilia A and B, von Willebrand disease, rare factor deficiencies, platelet function disorders, and other congenital or acquired bleeding disorders. Emphasis is placed on clear communication, requiring a lay summary of research for CHS publications, and collaboration with established scientists in the field.
