The Victoria Cohen Scholarship is now open for applications from aspiring ocular oncologists in need of financial support throughout their fellowship.

Each year the charity awards a single scholarship to an aspiring ocular oncologist in need of financial assistance for their training. This year the scholarship is worth $30,000.

Applicants can come from anywhere in the world and can do their fellowship at any recognised Centre of Excellence. For full details of the application and judging process please visit www.vcecct.org.
