Personal Fellowship Route

UCL has an excellent track record for assisting aspiring clinicians and scientists to further their career development through the award of personal fellowships. Examples of current and past personal fellowships at the Institute include:

• Medical Research Council: Clinical Training Fellowship
• Engineering & Physical Sciences Research Council: Advanced Training Fellowship
• European Commission: Marie Curie Individual Fellowships
• Royal College of Surgeons of England, Faculty of Dental Surgery Fellowship
• The Royal Society Fellowships
• Wellcome Trust Clinical Scientist Fellowships

In the majority of cases, staff holding personal fellowships proceed to apply for permanent academic posts. Indeed, several of our current academic staff held a personal fellowship at the Institute.

We would encourage interested parties to review the funding schemes available for personal fellowships. A selection of schemes is provided below. If you are interested in pursuing one of these routes and you fulfill the criteria set by the funding body, please discuss your proposal with one of the Heads of our Research Departments:
