The Cynthia Banham Burn Injury Research Fellowship is an initiative between The Ian Potter Foundation, Cynthia Banham and the Fiona Wood Foundation.

The Fellowship supports clinically relevant burn injury research undertaken by an early-career researcher under the supervision of Professor Fiona Wood, an internationally recognised leader in burn care and translational burn research.

Cynthia Banham, former Sydney Morning Herald foreign affairs and defence journalist, was critically injured in the Yogyakarta air disaster in March 2007 while travelling with a delegation led by the then Minister for Foreign Affairs, the Hon Alexander Downer MP. Following her treatment by Professor Wood and the Royal Perth Hospital burns team, this Fellowship was established to honour her recovery and to advance research that improves long-term outcomes and quality of life for survivors of severe burn trauma.

The Fellowship aims to develop the next generation of burn care specialists by enabling early-career clinical and non-clinical researchers (including junior medical officers, service registrars and higher-degree research candidates) to undertake clinically relevant burn injury research as part of their broader career development. The Fellowship may be conducted alongside ongoing clinical or academic practice. It may be structured as either a part-time project or a block of time equivalent to a full-time role.

The Fellowship is open to early-career researchers (within 10 years of their initial qualification) committed to a career in burn care and eligible to conduct research in Western Australia. Support is provided to ensure research ethics and governance approvals are in place before commencement.

The Launceston General Hospital is a 349-bed regional teaching hospital that provides medical care to the city of Launceston and to a relatively large but sparsely populated area spanning the Northern and North-Western Tasmanian regions, which includes King and Flinders Islands.

The plastic and reconstructive surgery department has five consultants, one Fellow, one accredited registrar, three non-accredited registrars, one resident and one intern.

Due to the geographic isolation from the mainland and the accompanying logistical hurdles in referring patients across the Bass strait, the unit offers services for a broad range of plastic and reconstructive indications. The emphasis is on skin cancer, elective and traumatic hand conditions, head and neck malignancy, breast, pelvic and abdominal wall reconstruction, minor burns, pressure injuries and other wounds, and maxillofacial trauma in adult and paediatric populations. The Fellowship also uniquely allows for training in cosmetic surgery and injection techniques.

The ASAPS Fellowship program has been developed to expand on the pre‐Fellowship training in aesthetic surgery that is an integral part of Plastic and Reconstructive surgery training. This allows sub‐specialisation in an area of interest such as breast surgery, facial surgery, rhinoplasty surgery, body contouring surgery. At the end of the College training we would like to offer our graduates the option to learn and compliment their aesthetic knowledge and skills by doing a fellowship. Fellowships are supported by our industry partners in the form of scholarships to augment the stipend for these fellowships. The following fellowships are currently available, although timing is subject to availability. They are all for 6 months andsome are run by individuals and some by a group of surgeons.

Please contact Suzane Ali at the ASAPS office for further information with regards to application and funding for these fellowships. p: 02 9437 0495  e: sali@asaps.org.au.
