Fellowships
New fellows announced We are pleased to announce the successful recipients of the 2023-24 Francis Fontan Fund Fellowship programme. Undertaking a fellowship is a unique experience and one of the benefits available to EACTS members. This year, we had a fantastic response to the extended range of fellowships on offer. We received over 210 applications for the 16 fellowship programmes available – the highest number of applications ever. We would like to thank everyone who took the time to submit an application for a fellowship; the interview panels have been particularly impressed with the high quality of the applications this year.
