WiNTR VISA
The Women in Neurotrauma Research – Visiting (Inter)national Scholar Award (WiNTR VISA) was established by TEAM Neurotrauma (Training, Education, and Mentoring) to promote national and international networking opportunities and advance the early careers of women neurotrauma researchers.
The Award provides an opportunity for national or international collaboration by subsidizing both travel to the National Neurotrauma Symposium and a brief period of research training/collaboration in a sponsor’s laboratory. This Award supports the mission of TEAM to promote gender equality in neurotrauma research to learn new skills or techniques pertinent to their research project.
The Award covers roundtrip airfare to the NNS meeting and sponsoring laboratory, registration, abstract fee, lodging, and meals, up to $5,000
