PC4 Training Award

The objective of the PC4 Training Award is to promote a greater understanding of the primary care needs of cancer patients and survivors, encourage research in this area and build capacity by encouraging clinicians, early and mid-career researchers to undertake research and skills development in cancer in primary care.

Training Awards have commonly been aligned with PC4’s Cancer in general practice research priorities in Australia. More recently, proposals that specifically target selected Priority Population Groups (older Australians, culturally or linguistically diverse groups, or patients living in rural and remote areas) were also encouraged.  

Generally $5000 is awarded to the successful applicants, as well as membership to a PC4 Engine Room for a period of twelve months. Clinicians or researchers in the early stages of their career are encouraged to apply.
