The Cynthia Banham Burn Injury Research Fellowship is an initiative of The Ian Potter Foundation, Cynthia Banham and the Fiona Wood Foundation. The Fellowship supports clinically relevant burn injury research undertaken by an early-career researcher under the supervision of Professor Fiona Wood.
Its purpose is to support the next generation of burn care specialists by enabling early-career clinical and non-clinical researchers, including junior medical officers, service registrars and higher-degree research candidates, to undertake meaningful burn injury research.
The 2026 application process involved a two-stage assessment, with eligible applicants progressing from an initial Expression of Interest to a full application. Applications for both stages have now closed, and the Fiona Wood Foundation thanks all applicants for their strong interest and the high quality of submissions received.
The Fellowship recipient will be announced in late January 2026, with updates shared via the Foundation’s website and communication channels.
