Congratulations to Bionics Institute researcher and neurologist Associate Professor David Szmulewicz, who was awarded a Veski FAIR Fellowship!
A/Prof Szmulewicz will use the funding to continue his highly impactful work with Aboriginal communities living in remote regions, where his research focuses on improving the lives of people living with spinocerebellar ataxias – a group of debilitating neurological conditions that affect coordination, balance, vision, speech and swallow.
The Fostering Achievement in Research (FAIR) Fellowship supports early and mid-career researchers who have narrowly missed out on national funding, with a focus on supporting a diverse and inclusive workforce.
Thank you to Veski and Victorian Minister for Medical Research Ben Carroll for supporting Bionics Institute research.
