Our fellowship scheme at the Quadram Institute helps individuals to become future leaders within the fields of food,microbes and health research.
The Quadram Institute Early Career Fellowships provides medium term support (36 months) to outstanding early career scientists to enable them to apply for more ambitious 5-year fellowship programmes (e.g. from UKRI, Wellcome Trust, ERC). It also allows researchers the opportunity to initiate independent research and to promote distinct interactions with other scientists.
The objectives of the Quadram Early Career Fellowship programme are to:
- Initiate an independent research programme at the Quadram Institute and to generate preliminary data to support a longer-term Fellowship application
- Receive mentorship in the development of research strategy, scientific writing and networking skills.
- Develop and submit fellowship applications to major funders
