CADTH Symposium Travel Award Program for Students and Patient Group Representatives Due Dec 10

[A Former User]

Here's the website

https://symposium.cadth.ca/travel-awards-program/

This year, eligible students and patient group representatives can receive up to $2,000 to offset registration, travel, food, accommodation, and other conference-related expenses.

CADTH will be held in Toronto for the first time ever, in 2020, April 19 to 21,though there has been some suggestion of having events a day early so possibly April 18 as well.

CADTH is all about Health Technology Assessment and Management, and it's good to know how drugs and devices are approved in Canada, and what goes into the decisions. They usually sponsor at least 25 patients and some others who attend pay to go if they are in the host city particularly, because the registration fee is around $100 if I remember correctly.

They will livestream some events.

It might be a good chance to have a PAN meetup for coffee, once we know more. I hope to be collaborating on a workshop about HTA basics

PS You can also sign up to be an abstract reviewer.
