Harry Weaver, Ph.D., known worldwide for his contribution to neurosciences and multiple sclerosis research, was the Society's Director of Research from 1966-1977. Throughout his tenure with the Society and throughout his career, Dr. Weaver continued to encourage young investigators to enter and pursue MS research, and to broaden our understanding of basic and clinical aspects of MS.
Mentor and Institution: The mentor must hold a faculty appointment at an accredited institution and have adequate research funding and support to provide an appropriate training environment for the postdoctoral fellow.
It is the responsibility of the mentor and institution to recruit and select one or more appropriate postdoctoral fellows and to provide an appropriate program of training and experience leading to independence in the conduct of rehabilitation research in multiple sclerosis.
Postdoctoral Fellows: Fellows with 0-36 months of previous postdoctoral training are eligible to be supported by this award. Fellows must hold, or be candidates for, a Ph.D., M.D., or equivalent degree.
However, a fellowship under this program cannot be activated for a doctoral candidate until the Society has received written notification from a university or professional school that an appropriate doctoral degree has been awarded. Once postdoctoral candidates are selected, their credentials must be submitted to the Society by the mentor for final review and approval.
Citizenship: U.S. citizenship is not required either for mentors or postdoctoral fellows working at institutions in the United States. Mentors and institutions outside the United States may apply to this program but are requested to submit dual applications to governmental granting agencies and/or other non-profit funding agencies in their own country.
