David Henderson Smart Scholarship

Emeritus Professor David Henderson-Smart has a long history of association with the Perinatal Society of Australia and New Zealand (PSANZ). He is a founding member of the Australian Perinatal Society and has championed the development of new researchers in all disciplines.

In 2007 he retired from active academic and clinical work and was honoured with a ‘festschrift’ to celebrate his work. The proceeds resulting from this day were generously donated by the organising committee (at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital) to PSANZ to establish a fund in his honour.

This fund has now become the David Henderson-Smart Scholarship to enable his vision of perinatal research and evidenced based practice to be realised. This scholarship is focussed on assisting our brightest early career researchers (ECRs) in developing a research career in perinatal medicine.
