Vital funding that provides early-career medical specialists with opportunities to work on innovative research and patient treatments 

The Cunningham Fellows program provides early career clinicians and clinician-researchers the support they need to undertake clinical research and manage trials of new treatments and patient care models. It also provides vital professional development opportunities for younger doctors seeking to grow their knowledge within specialist areas, assisting St Vincent’s Hospitals to recruit and retain the best doctors into the future.
