Applications are now open for the Nuno Grande Doctoral Scholarship 2022, worth €25,000. Candidates must, at the time of application submission, be enrolled in the Doctoral Program in Medical Sciences at the School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences (ICBAS). The applications are open until January 20, 2023.
Created to support research work in the areas of Fundamental Sciences, the Nuno Grande Doctoral Scholarship 2022 aims to promote the acquisition of differentiating academic skills for the teaching of Medicine by medical doctors who, collaborating in teaching, are or intend to develop their studies under the scope of the Doctoral Programme in Medical Sciences taught at the ICBAS.
The initiative to create the Scholarship came from Nuno Grande's family and was immediately welcomed by ICBAS and the BIAL Foundation. It was announced on the 47th anniversary of ICBAS, which dedicated the celebration to its founder Nuno Grande. The distinguished professor has also been elected by the University of Porto as the Eminent Figure for 2022.
Nuno Grande was involved in the genesis of the constitution of the BIAL Foundation, where he held the position of member of the Board from its creation in 1994 until 2007, having helped to write the Foundation’s statutes. He has also been on the Jury of several editions of the BIAL Award since 1984.
