New for 2027
Two exciting changes have been made to the ASH Scholar Award program. The Scholar Award eligibility criteria have been updated to help applicants more easily understand which ASH Award program is most appropriate for them. Additionally, to expand access, applicants with less than 75% protected research time may now apply, provided these circumstances are well justified as they will be critically evaluated during the application review process.
