The Joan Rachlin Scholarship Fund was established in honor of PRIM&R’s founding executive director, Joan Rachlin. Joan championed the development of conference scholarships to ensure that professionals from resource-scarce settings around the world could access key learning opportunities. This fund supports PRIM&R’s current conference scholarship programs: the Institutional Capacity Building Scholarship (which serves teams from HBCUs, HSIs, TCUs) and the Global Research Scholarship (which serves IRB/REC staff/members and researchers from LMICs).
