An early-career researcher from the Faculty of Health at the University of Canberra has been awarded a scholarship to visit the National Institutes of Health in the United States in late 2017.
During her eight-week visit, Hayley Teasdale will work with Dr Mark Hallett at the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke to undertake training in non-invasive brain stimulation techniques and underlying neurophysiology.
Hayley’s visit has been made possible by the Adam J Berry Memorial Fund, established in memory of a young Australian scientist. The fund pays travel expenses for one young Australian scientist each year to work at an NIH institute for up to 13 weeks. In return, they are expected to make a contribution to the research program of the institute they are visiting. The fund is co-managed by the Academy and the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health.
