Clinical funding latest

7 March 2010

We support clinical academics with a suite of schemes that provides funding at all career stages.

In the latest round of funding we have awarded 14 Research Training Fellowships, which will allow aspiring clinical academics to undertake highquality training in research that leads to a PhD.

For clinicians looking to develop independent research careers, we have awarded four Intermediate Clinical Fellowships and two Postdoctoral Training Fellowships for MB/PhD Graduates. The latter scheme was launched in late 2008 to meet the requirements of clinical academics who undertook a PhD during or before starting their medical degree. For details on all clinical fellowships, see.

Some 40 candidates received Starter Grants for Clinical Lecturers in 2009, over the two opening rounds of competition. Managed in collaboration with the Academy of Medical Science, these grants support research-active clinical lecturers by helping them to maintain momentum in their research.

The deadline for preliminary applications for the next round of Fellowships for MB/PhD Graduates is 16 April 2010.
