They will complement and extend research within defined areas of our portfolio (see below); building novel activity. They will have a vision for their future leadership in research, developing new partnerships with public, private and third sector organisations, and innovating in research-led teaching. The scheme focusses on research in the first two years and over time the Fellows will take up an increasing portfolio of core academic activities, including teaching and academic leadership.

**What is in it for you**

Fellows will be recruited as a cohort beginning in August 2023 and will be supported to achieve their research and leadership ambitions through dedicated mentoring from academic leaders, peer support and a bespoke development programme aimed at providing the skills required for research and teaching leadership. In addition, Fellows will be awarded a start-up grant of £30K to establish their research.
