This scheme is for outstanding post-doctoral scientists wishing to build their own UK-based, independent research career addressing an important biomedical question.
The scheme supports research ranging from the molecules and cells vital to life and their role in the global spread of disease, to clinical and public health research seeking to improve the quality of healthcare. It can be based in the laboratory, clinic or field, and may involve experimental or theoretical approaches.
You are eligible to apply for a Sir Henry Dale Fellowship if you have a PhD and significant postdoctoral research experience. You must have an eligible sponsoring host organisation in the UK with the support of the relevant Head of Department, or equivalent.
Fellowships are tenable for five years in the first instance, with the potential to apply for competitive renewal for an additional three years.
