Number of fellows accepted: Depends on funding availability. We welcome applications specially from individuals who have (or can secure) funding to support their fellowship. We can also work together towards securing funding opportunities for other deserving candidates. Canadian trained fellows are particularly encouraged to apply.
How to apply? Email Dr. Gyawali at Gyawali.bishal@queensu.ca with your up-to-date CV, and a letter outlining your interest in the fellowship. The letter should specifically mention whether you have a secured funding to support your fellowship, but not having a secured funding should not deter deserving candidates from applying.
