This award commemorates the creative and innovative spirit of Richard Hoeschen and allows the awarded B.Sc.(Med) Supervisor to offset operating expenses incurred for the supervisor of a B.Sc. (Medicine) student at the University of Manitoba. The award can be up to $4,000/per year and is administered by MMSF. For Supervisors without o t h e r s o u r c e s o f s u p p o r t Any supervisor interested in applying for this award should be aware that it is intended only for those individual investigators without external grant support or access to departmental or other funds that could be used to offset expenses related to a student’s project. To apply, supervisors should send the below materials via email to: Program Coordinator, Kimberley Ormiston @ [email protected] The letter should contain the following information: • Student’s name and presenting year • Brief summary of the project • The amount requested (up to $4,000.00) • Outline of how the funds will be spent (budget) • Statement that neither the supervisor nor co-supervisor holds a research grant or has access to an appropriate level of funding for a student’s project Only one award will be given each year. If the award is made in the first year of a project’s life, there is no guarantee that it will be awarded again for the second year. However, if an award is made in year 1, it can be distributed over the two (2) years of a project’s life. Any unspent funds remaining after the student completes the program will revert back to the MMSF. Ethics approval will be required. The same ethics approval received for the student’s project can be used to cover a Richard Hoeschen Award. The award will be dispersed through an account established by your department with the Budgets and Grants Office of the University. **Please note that the award may not be used as a top-up for a student’s stipend.** Sincerely, John M.
