Survivorship Fellows
In 2020, COSA established its Survivorship Fellowship program for early career researchers to lead studies to help build capacity in survivorship research. Fellows receive mentorship, guidance and support from the Survivorship Executive Committee comprised of internationally renowned senior clinicians and researchers in cancer survivorship. The projects will help advance survivorship research and improve outcomes for all Australians after cancer treatment.
