Fellowships in Rural Health Research
CUCRH has offered competitive research fellowships to rural and remote health professionals wishing to explore priority issues in their community since 2001. The fellowships include salary replacement, supervision by a CUCRH academic and an academic mentor. Since 2003 these fellowships have been funded through the Primary Health Care Research, Evaluation and Training (PHCRED) initiative of the Commonwealth Department of Health and Ageing. The Researcher Development Program funded additional fellowships (including five mini-fellowships) in 2005.
