The objectives of the scheme are to:

 

• attract, develop and sustain research talent from around the world, from different backgrounds and experiences.

 

• provide funding for the exceptional early career researchers to tackle difficult and novel challenges, and enable adventurous, ambitious research that supports our strategic priorities.

 

• provide the development and support that enables these early career researchers to establish an independent position by the end of the Fellowship, be that either a permanent lectureship or be competitive for an externally funded Fellowship

 

Suitable candidates are expected to have:

 

• a PhD in a relevant field or equivalent;

 

• started to establish a track-record of high quality research for their career stage;

 

• an aptitude to lead and inspire others;

 

• an enthusiasm for developing skills in teaching, leadership and engagement;

 

• excellent interpersonal and communication skills.

 

Diversity: These Fellowships will support applicants from diverse background and career paths. Applications from individuals from underrepresented groups and/or wishing to work part-time to combine the fellowship with personal responsibilities, are encouraged.
