Non-Stipendary Early-Career Research Fellowship 2024

Corpus Christi College, Cambridge (UK) invites applications for one Non-Stipendiary Early- Career Research Fellowship tenable for up to three years from 1 October 2024.

These Fellowships are principally for early-career researchers, and not (for example) for those on a second or senior postdoctoral award. “Early career” is defined as being within four years from the date of a successful viva voce examination at the time of application 

Candidates must have external funding support for their salary for the term of their Fellowship. This includes, but is not restricted to, research appointments from the Royal Society, the British Academy, the various Research Councils of the United Kingdom or the European Union (for example, Marie Curie, Human Frontiers), the Wellcome Trust or the Leverhulme Trust. 

Applicants must, at the time of their appointment, and for the duration of their appointment, be working at the University of Cambridge (or an associated research institution) in a post-doctoral research role. Residency in Cambridge is required for the term of the Fellowship.

Applications are welcome in any subject. 

An early-career Research Fellow is expected to pursue learning and research in their chosen field and publish the results. The College’s academic environment provides favourable conditions for research, which will be undertaken freely and without oversight on the part of the College.

Full details are available in the Further Particulars for the post.  

Applications should be submitted to the CASC Fellowship Application System (FAS) at the following link https://app.casc.cam.ac.uk/fas_live/ccnsrf24 by noon BST on Wednesday 24 April 2024. 

Interviews are expected to take place at the College (or by Zoom) in the week of Monday 10 June 2024.

Informal enquiries should be addressed to Dr Jenny Zhang (Secretary to the Non-Stipendiary Early-Career Research Fellowship Competition) by email to research-fellowships@corpus.cam.ac.uk.
