Introduction (Not Applicable)

Welcome to The Dana Zilinskas Fellowship funding round for 2026.

The purpose of the Fellowship is to enable the successful social worker to gain further knowledge in their chosen field. One Fellowship, valued at up to $5,000, will be awarded each year.

National or international travel to attend or present at conferences
Establishing relationships with future collaborators for clinical research and learning
Bringing back initiatives implemented elsewhere that have the potential to improve the quality of patient care at Melbourne Health.
