Annual Meeting Traveling Scholarship Program

The AFSH/ASSH are proud to offer traveling scholarships to residents, fellows, and active duty military to attend the Adrian E. Flatt Residents and Fellows Conference and ASSH Annual Meeting.  Each $1,500 scholarship is intended to cover registration fees, airfare and lodging.  The scholarship program is funded by grants from the ASSH, AFSH, corporate donations, hand club gifts and individual donations.  The Annual Meeting Traveling Scholarship Program began in 2008 and originally was open to residents, fellows and medical students.  In 2011, the program was expanded to include active duty military.  In 2014, the AFSH introduced the Daniel C. Riordan Scholarship Award in conjunction with the traveling scholarship program.  The Riordan Award recognizes a talented resident or fellow who has a sincere interest in teaching and patient care and is selected from the pool of scholarship applicants for this special recognition.  Learn more about the Scholarship Program and how to apply.
