³Ô¹ÏÍø Research Fellowships

The ³Ô¹ÏÍø Research Fellowship (IRF) scheme is designed for outstanding early career researchers looking for an opportunity to focus on research and establish scientific independence, making the leap from a post-doctoral researcher to permanent lecturer.

Candidates are expected to have no more than five years of post-doctoral research experience at the time of the start of the fellowship. Extensions to this time period will be considered in circumstances that support our commitment to diversity, a positive research culture and non-traditional career paths.
