KAY KENDALL LEUKAEMIA FUND – INTERMEDIATE RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS 2011 – LONDON
The Intermediate Fellowship will be for up to 4 years. The Fellowship will support the salary of the Fellow; applicants may also include a salary for technical support in their application and this will be considered on an individual basis. A significant proportion of their Fellowship (up to 3 years) may be spent in an appropriate institution outside the UK where this can be clearly demonstrated to be of significant benefit. In such cases applications can include a family allowance cost element in their application if appropriate.
Designation of Post : The incumbent will be designated Kay Kendall Leukaemia Fund Intermediate Research Fellow.
Eligibility : Only scientists of the highest calibre will be offered a fellowship. If, in the judgement of the selection panel, no candidate of sufficiently high standard is found, then no appointment will be made. The candidate is likely to be a non-clinical biomedical scientist or a clinician with a background in basic research and have a recognised higher degree (PhD or equivalent), although exceptions may be made in special circumstances. They may be of any nationality, however they must be based in a university department or equivalent department in the UK with the expectation of remaining in the UK thereafter.
Research Proposal : The application should include a scientific proposal of up to 6 single-spaced pages plus references. It will be treated as a confidential document but will inevitably be seen by selected external reviewers.
Applicants should complete the approved Application Form which should be sent by email, in addition to providing a hard copy with original signatures. It must include the research proposal (aims, background, plan of investigation, justification for budget), CV and letter of support. Applications should also include a 2-page CV for each supervisor/mentor to include selected published papers and current grants. Interviews will take place in London.
Application Deadline : Applications for the 2011 awards should be received on or before 28 April 2011.
