Four prestigious early career Fellowships are available at the
University of York's Centre for Future Health to support world-class
researchers in the broad domain of health. The scheme is jointly
funded by the Wellcome Trust and the University of York and is open to
individuals from across the sciences, social sciences and the arts and
humanities. Fellowships offer salary in the range of £38,882 - £47,722
per annum for two years starting from 1 October 2018 and project
expenses of up to £100,000.

This scheme is intended to provide a stepping stone for the ablest
post-doctoral early career researchers to begin a fully-established,
independent and externally-funded research career. Previous Fellows
include researchers in neuroscience, psychology, molecular and cell
biology, electronics, art history and social science.

The York Centre for Future Health (cfh at york.ac.uk,
https://www.york.ac.uk/future-health/) can advise on all aspects of
the application process including eligibility and the first stage of
identifying a suitable academic sponsor in the applicant’s target
department.

We are pleased to receive applications from people who have had a
career break (because of family commitments, ill health or to take on
work outside of research) and who wish to re-establish their research
career. Applicants with interdisciplinary interests and those who have
some professional experience from another institution, academic or
non-academic, are particularly welcome.

The University of York (http://www.york.ac.uk) is a thriving UK
Russell group University with particular strengths in the domain of
health research and biomedical sciences including psychology,
neuroimaging, vision science, health and social sciences, biology and
chemistry.

For more details on the scheme, please see

The application deadline is March 31st.
