 Protected time and funding to increase research skills and experience.

To enable the cross-seeding of perspectives, ideas and connections needed to underpin future translational biomedical and health research.

Funding Available

• Duration: 1 – 3 years
• Salary: 20-50% of the applicant’s salary to support protected research time
