Prostate Cancer UK – Travelling Prize Fellowships
aim to provide a unique opportunity for the most outstanding early career researchers to begin to develop their independent research careers, working in the best research environments in the UK and overseas.
- Awards are for three to four years. A period of at least six months must be spent outside of the Fellows’ host institution (either elsewhere in the UK, or abroad). Awards can be for up to £250,000 if solely based in the UK, or a total of £300,000 if the Fellowship includes a placement at one or more institutions outside the UK.
- Applicants must be within 2 years of their PhD viva (reasonable career breaks will be taken into consideration). Candidates may also apply if they are in the final year of their PhD, but in this instance, they will be expected to have successfully passed their viva within the next 12 months.
- Travelling Prize Fellowships must be held at a UK-based University, NHS site or other recognised higher research institution.
