Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada raises funds to provide vital services and programs for the brain tumour community. We also lead research into the cause of and cure for this devastating disease through a variety of funding opportunities including the Brain Tumour Research Studentship. This award provides students opportunities to gain experience in Brain Tumour research and its research methods.
Successful applicants will receive $10,000 over two years ($5,000 per summer). Funding will be granted for students working on projects in June, July and August 2024 and June, July and August 2025 (unless otherwise requested).
Taite Boomer was an all-around Canadian kid, whose battle with a brain tumour led to the creation of the Brain Tumour Research Studentship. The Taite Boomer Memorial Brain Tumour Foundation continues to advance research into the cause of and cure for brain tumours by encouraging young researchers to get into the field.
