Biometrika Fellowships

Current state of Biometrika Application Process:

We are currently not accepting applications for Biometrika Fellowships.

Provision:

The fellowship offers an annual salary, research support costs, and funding for a career development event to be devised and organised by the Fellow. Applications should be made by the (potential) Fellow, who will not be on a permanent contract and who should have identified and sought the support of a suitable UK host department.

Eligibility:

• No citizenship restrictions.

• Candidates must hold a PhD before taking up the Fellowship, or at least have passed their degree subject to minor amendments. Preference will be given to applicants with at most three years of post-doctoral experience.

• Fellowships must be hosted in a UK university, or a suitable UK public-sector research institution.

• Compliance with UK Visa requirements: it is the responsibility of the host department to get UKVI approval once an award is made.
