HIP Resident Award
The HIP Resident Award Program supports first- and second-year medical residents from communities underrepresented in hematology across the U.S. and Canada. As part of the Hematology Inclusion Pathway, the HIP Resident Award provides participants with a stipend to conduct research and to present their research at the ASH annual meeting. Residents also receive mentorship from ASH members, gain valuable hematology knowledge, and benefit from complimentary ASH membership.
Eligible candidates include those in internal medicine, pathology, pediatric residencies, and residents who have applied to or matched early into a hematology-oncology fellowship program.
