Paul Roy Travel Grants - to assist associate members in presenting research at conferences
Professor Roy gained tremendous knowledge through his research studies overseas. He was able to incorporate these skills into important new programs in Australia, most importantly the establishment of Australia’s first Department of Paediatric Nephrology and the Centre for Kidney Research at the Royal Alexandra Hospital for Children. As such, the Paul Roy Travel Grants awarded by ANZPNA for paediatric nephrology trainees are grants that would have made Professor Roy proud.
Please see the attached document to learn more about Professor Roy and the establishment of the renal unit at Royal Alexandra Hospital at Camperdown (now Children's Hospital at Westmead) and Centre for Kidney Research at Westmead -
