Pediatric Infectious Diseases Fellowships in Europe: 12 Recorded Programs

Young ESPID member in good standing with a clinical professional degree and clinical work, on a pediatric infectious-disease academic trajectory. Prior recipients of this fellowship and current Board/award-committee members are excluded; at least one relevant supervisor must be an eligible society member.

Up to €110,000 total over the approved 18-month–four-year award, paid annually to the host institution for the fellow’s direct personal support. Research consumables, other salaries and institutional indirect costs are excluded; project co-funding may be needed.

The page separately describes a two-year DGPI pediatric infectious-disease qualification without available scholarships and a 12-month specialist infectious-disease training authorization. These are distinct from the visiting observership.
