50 Newton Fellowships for post-doctoral researchers who do not hold UK citizenship and work in the fields of humanities, natural and social sciences
A new round of Newton Fellowships - an initiative to fund research collaborations and improve links between UK and overseas researchers - has opened.
The Newton International Fellowships are funded by the British Academy, the Royal Academy of Engineering and the Royal Society and aim to attract the most promising post-doctoral researchers working overseas in the fields of humanities, engineering, natural and social sciences. The Fellowships enable researchers to work for two years
with a UK research institution, thus establishing long-term international collaborations.
The funding will be distributed in the form of 50 research fellowships, awarded annually, each providing support of up to £100,000 for a two year placement. The scheme is open to post-doctoral (and equivalent) early-career researchers working outside the UK who do not hold UK citizenship.
The closing date for applications is Monday, 12 January 2009.
