Our Postdoctoral Innovation Award is part the Division's continued commitment to supporting our early career scientists.
In July 2016 the Division of Infection and Immunity launched a new initiative to support the career development of its postdoctoral staff, the 'Postdoctoral Innovation Award.' This initiative is part of our continued commitment to supporting early career scientists, helping them transition from postdoc to independent group leaders.
The award offers the Infection and Immunity post-doctoral community the opportunity to support the pursuit of an independent project, and to gain experience of preparing and defending a grant proposal.
