Machtay Young Investigators Award (1 award)

In 2019, NRG Oncology received a generous gift from Mitchell Machtay, MD, Deputy Group Chair for Research and Chief Scientific Officer. This important and generous gift supplements the existing NRG Travel Award Program, funding the travel of one young investigator from an NRG Member Institution to the NRG Oncology semiannual meeting.  A longtime member of RTOG Foundation and Deputy Group Chair for NRG Oncology since its inception, Dr. Machtay has been a staunch advocate for young investigators and for NRG overall. The award will support up to $1,500 in meeting related expenses such as coach airfare, transportation to/from the hotel, meals, and two hotel nights.
