How realistic are your chances?

This scholarship is aimed at a narrowly defined target group: PhD students in medical or natural science research who are nearing the completion of their doctoral thesis. As a result, the pool of eligible candidates is small. So, if you clearly meet the subject area and stage of study requirements and submit your application by the deadline, your prospects are good. As with any research scholarship, a convincing, well-substantiated case is paramount.
