Since 2015, the ASHM Scholarship Program provides a variety of scholarships to assist ASHM members, affiliates and others in the HIV, viral hepatitis and sexual health sector to attend national and international conferences to support their continuing professional development. Scholarships have previously been awarded to HIV and HBV S100 prescribers (GP/Primary care), Sexual Health physicians, hospital-based specialists managing HIV, nurses and community pharmacists.
ASHM scholarships are now available for CROI 2021. The conference will be delivered virtually and scholarships will cover conference registration.
