The Francis Crick Institute invites applications for its Doctoral Fellowships for Clinicians, offering a unique opportunity for talented clinicians to carry out exciting research projects as part of the Crick's PhD programme.

About the Fellowships: This fully funded three-year PhD programme offers talented clinicians the opportunity to pursue biomedical discovery research in a world-class research environment. Research at the Crick spans multiple disciplines and aims to improve our understanding, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of disease.

They benefit from well-resourced research labs, state-of-the-art science technology platforms, and a supportive and stimulating research environment.

Funding: Our fellowships are fully funded for three years, covering salary, tuition fees and costs for research, training and travel. Successful candidates will receive a salary commensurate with their current clinical experience and stage of training, up to but not including NHS consultant level.

Eligibility: We welcome applications from talented and motivated clinicians who are passionate about research, have a strong academic track record and hold GMC registration or equivalent.
