EWMA and ConvaTec are partnering in 2019 to support three research grants available to nurses, doctors and scientists in wound care in Europe.

The goal of this initiative is to support projects that aim to advance wound management research and elicit innovation.

Alberto Piaggesi, EWMA’s President, commented on this EWMA initiative: “It is one of EWMA's priorities to promote innovative projects that provide new knowledge and perspectives on the field of wound management. It is of huge importance for EWMA to secure the future of wound management and support new talents in the wound community.”

The deadline for the applications is 30 September 2019. Two research grants are available for early career researchers and one for early career researchers.

Each application should be devoted to one of those themes.
