Four prestigious Fellowships are available through the University of York's Centre for Future Health (https://www.york.ac.uk/future-health/) to support world-class early career 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 worked in areas including neuroscience, psychology, molecular and cell biology, electronics, history and social science. Applicants with interdisciplinary interests and those who have some professional experience from another institution, academic or non-academic, are particularly welcome.

We are also 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.
