2027 ROCK Society Traveling Fellowship Grant
Award Details
The ROCK Society Traveling Fellowship Grant covers up to $5,000 in travel-related expenditures to visit and meet with other Society members to develop or execute collaborative stone-related research ideas, write collaborative stone-related manuscripts or create other deliverables, or develop skills or gain knowledge related to conducting urolithiasis research. Applicants must be a ROCK Society member in good standing, and early-stage investigators (trainee or junior faculty within 10 years of terminal degree).

- relevance, clarity, and quality of the proposal;
- likelihood of accomplishing the proposed objectives within the timeframe described; and
- potential for future follow-up activities or growth.
