PTF Grants Programme

The Polish Phlebological Society awards educational grants for participation in both domestic and international conferences. These grants are awarded depending on the availability of funds that can be used for educational purposes related to Polish phlebologists attending conferences both in Poland and abroad. Information about available grants is posted on the PTF website on an ongoing basis, along with announcements about application deadlines for obtaining this type of grant.

Depending on available funds, it is also possible to award both educational and scientific grants in cooperation with other entities supporting the Polish Phlebological Society in achieving its statutory goals (including companies operating in the field of phlebology). If such funds are obtained, information about both educational and scientific grants is posted on an ongoing basis on the PTF website, along with the deadline and application conditions.

Awards of the Polish Phlebological Society, as well as PTF honorary membership, are awarded in accordance with the decisions and resolutions of the Board of the Polish Phlebological Society, and information about them is published on the Society website.
