The Foundation is most grateful to Blackmores for supporting this Fellowship. The 2013 Fellowship is open to researchers based in eligible Australian institutions to pursue research into nutritional and/or lifestyle aspects of Macular Degeneration, consistent with the mission of the Foundation to reduce the incidence and impact of Macular Degeneration.
