The Fund is open to DPhil students and early career researchers (ECR) from MPLS and MSD. For this scheme an ECR is defined as:

  • Having a maximum 6 years’ full-time equivalent* postdoctoral experience at the point of application
  • Not hold an open-ended or academic position

Please note that priority will be given to applicants who have not yet received major independent funding (e.g. from a Fellowship). Junior Research Fellows and those without access to a wide range of sources for funding support are particularly encouraged to apply.

*excluding e.g., parental leave, career breaks and other extenuating circumstances.
