Announcement follows
Applications are invited for these prestigious postdoctoral fellowships funded by the University and targeted at excellent women scientists and engineers, under-represented in these subjects, who wish to establish a research career in the UK. The Fellowships are available from October 2010.
As this scheme offers a recognised first step into an independent research career, candidates must have submitted a PhD (viva does not need to have taken place) and have had no more than four years’ full-time postdoctoral experience by 1 October 2009. Career breaks such as maternity leave, EU national service and Voluntary Service Overseas can be discounted, but teaching experience and/or time spent in industry since the award of a PhD should be included in the total amount of postdoctoral experience. Part-time work will be considered on a pro-rata basis. Individuals who have been promised, or already hold, a permanent post are considered to have achieved the aims of the scheme already and will not be eligible. The scheme is designed to offer support and flexibility.
Each fellowship offers:
- Two years’ independent funding for research to be based at the University of Nottingham.
- The possibility of holding appointments on a part-time basis or of converting from full-time to part-time and back again to help match work and family commitments.
- The possibility of claiming some funds for family support, where these can be justified on scientific grounds, for example, cost of childcare during a conference or collaborative visit abroad.
- The possibility of reclaiming maternity leave.
- The option of participating in a mentor scheme, and career advice as required.
Subjects covered: Science, Engineering and Technology, Medicine.
Length of Tenure: Two years guaranteed. Academic years 2010/11 and 2011/2012.
Place of Tenure: The University of Nottingham.
Salaries will be set on the Research and Teaching Staff 4/5 scales, the top of scale 5 being £43,622 per annum (salary can progress to £50,569 per annum, subject to performance). An annual research expenses grant of up to £5,000 for each year the fellowship is held. Where appropriate, support for childcare to a maximum of £5,000 per year will also be available.
