Senior research fellowships
Our senior research
fellowships are for people who want to specialise in Parkinson's research by establishing their own
research group.
Applications are invited annually.
The next deadline for receipt of applications is 5pm on
Monday 3 December 2012.
Interviews will take place in April 2013.
Costs and duration
Senior research fellowships are initially offered for up to
£250,000 for 3 years.
Funding can cover:
- the cost of the applicant's salary
- appropriate start-up and running costs
- support for additional research assistance such as a technician
or research assistant
Senior research fellowship award holders can formally apply for
a further 2 years of funding 6 months before the end of the
award.
Fellowships awarded for more than 3 years may be dependent upon
the host research institution committing some funds towards the
latter stages of the fellowship.

post-doctoral or senior registrar level.
