John Nott Cancer Fellowship Travel Support Fund

Applications now open for funding in 2011

Closing date: 6 September 2010

John Nott was a well known Perth pharmacist and a patient of Dr Dennis Kermode who was Head of Department of General Surgery at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital. Mr Nott was also treated for colorectal cancer.  Prior to his death Mr Nott discussed the setting-up of a fund which would be managed by Cancer Council Western Australia in association with members of the Department of General Surgery at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.  Mr Nott’s prime interest was to help improve treatment of cancer by funding the visits of experts to WA to teach local clinicians and researchers.

The fund, which was set up in 1988, is to be awarded annually with a maximum of $10,000 for each funding round and with the main intention to provide support for a national or international clinical cancer leader/researcher to visit Western Australia to help provide further education in the area of clinical cancer management
