One-on-one hands-on sessions in a small class setting with Dr. Yelena Akelina, DVM, MS Director, Microsurgery Lab, Orthopaedic Surgery, Columbia University

We appreciate that a little financial aid can go a long way for students and academic researchers. This is why we are delighted to offer in-lab training scholarships to select researchers who are utilizing in vivo rodent models in their research and are looking to sharpen their skills at the bench!

Here’s how it works: Register for the training course that suits your needs and share your research goals with our team. Ensure that you confirm your eligibility for the scholarship by filling out all required fields and providing a detailed research summary. Course organizers will review all registrations and will contact you if you are eligible to receive a scholarship. If you are selected, you will then arrange to attend the course of your choosing and the scholarship award will be applied to your registration fee.
