Wishbone Orthopaedic Research Foundation Grants
There are two funding rounds for research grants in 2025. The second funding round is now open and the closing date has been extended to 22 September 2025. Applications for funding should be made using the grant application form.
Applicants for Wishbone funding are expected to be either Registrars or emerging new clinical researchers with an NZOA member as part of the project team.
The Wishbone Foundation is supported by the NZOA and all applications are evaluated by the Wishbone Orthopaedic Research Committee.
While grants are mainly smaller in nature, they can lead to larger projects with potentially major benefits for patients.
