Senior Research Fellowship Sponsorship Scheme

The Department of Zoology at the University of Cambridge seeks Expressions of Interest from early career researchers who wish to be sponsored for externally funded fellowships that will allow them to start an independent research group in our Department. Are you planning to submit a senior research fellowship* application for funding competitions with deadlines after March 2027? We offer a programme of support that will help establish you as an independent academic researcher, including assistance with your fellowship application, setting up your lab and recruiting personnel, as well as mentoring and training to help you develop your career. Research Fellows will also have access to the comprehensive package of ongoing support available from the School of Biological Sciences .
