Fellowships in NPP

Fellowships are personal awards from an external funder, which support scientists in developing their careers and tackling the major research questions in their fields.  Different types of fellowship can support researchers from graduate stages through to senior group leader level.  Below you can find information about how NPP supports fellows at postdoctoral and junior group leader levels.
