is promoting our exciting opportunity for outstanding early career researchers to develop independent research programmes as part of the (IRF) scheme. We aim to recruit the best talent and encourage applications from researchers from all backgrounds, from all over the world, across research fields active at Imperial. 

It is anticipated that applicants will be at the early stages of their research career and be able to demonstrate the potential to establish research independence.Candidates are expected to have no more than five years of post-PhD research experience by the start of the fellowship. Extensions to this time period will be considered in circumstances that support our commitment to diversity, a positive research culture and non-traditional career paths.
