The Michigan Trauma Coalition is pleased to announce the addition of two (2) trauma research scholarships available to MTC member institutions per calendar year!
The MTC awards research scholarships based on a comprehensive process. Components that are reviewed by the committee include, but are not limited to, the following: participation in MTC committees and meetings, completeness of the scholarship application and relevance of the trauma research. MTC provides financial reimbursement to scholarship awardees directly when conditions of the award are met. There will be two (2) research scholarships (up to $1,500 per project) awarded to cover the cost of travel to present trauma specific research posters and/or podium presentations at a conference (this does not include trauma QI/PI project presentations). Applicants will need to include the conference application or submission along with the invitation or acceptance to present. The research scholarship application request will follow the same timeline as the general scholarship requests.
Researchers from a MTC member hospital (without a MTC login) that are interested in applying for a trauma research scholarship may fill out this PDF and follow the instructions for submission.
- Reimbursement for conferences will be provided after a list of itemized conference fees have been received as well as a copy of itemized receipts to confirm conference costs. Conference costs include registration fee, travel fees, hotel stay and up to $75 per day for dining (excluding alcohol).
- Reimbursement will be provided after an original PowerPoint (or similar format) presentation is submitted by the scholarship recipient to our email sharing your research presentation. Reimbursement will occur within 14 business days of receipt of the PowerPoint and the completed MTC Reimbursement form.
