This fellowship provides support for researchers wishing to undertake independent research within a host laboratory and gain leadership skills as part of the transition to fully independent research leaders.
Applicants must provide strong evidence of working towards this goal, demonstrating an upward trajectory to pursuing independent work within a host organisation.
In addition to supporting biotechnology or biological research topics this funding will also support non-hypothesis driven applications, including:
- data-driven, discovery led projects
- technology development projects
Applicants must:
- be an early career researcher
- hold a PhD qualification (or equivalent experience)
- be based at a UK research organisation eligible for BBSRC funding
Projects must start by 1 July 2027. The duration of the award is three years.
