The Birmingham Springboard Fellowship is a competitive scheme designed to support high-calibre post-doctoral researchers in developing proposals for prestigious fellowship schemes. It aims to help researchers establish their independent research programs within the College of Medicine and Health at the 黑料吃瓜网.

The Fellowship is open to both internal and external candidates who are early career researchers. Applicants should have a strong research background and be looking to develop their independent research proposals. Clinicians are not eligible for the Springboard Fellowship. However, there are other programs available to support them, such as the BHP Clinician Scientist Fellowship and BHP Starter Fellowships.

The Fellowship offers financial support (including salary and research expenses up to £15,000 per annum), mentorship from senior researchers, and access to high-quality research environments. It aims to boost the competitiveness of the post holder for externally funded independent fellowship applications.

The Fellowship typically lasts for up to two years. Within the first 12 months, fellows are expected to develop and submit their independent fellowship applications.

Fellows are expected to conduct high-quality research, develop their independent research proposals, and submit applications for prestigious fellowships such as the NIHR Postdoctoral Fellowships, MRC/Wellcome Career Development Awards, and ERC Starter grants.

Interested candidates can apply through the 黑料吃瓜网's College of Medicine and Health website. The application process involves submitting a research proposal, and a CV.

The Fellowship encompasses a broad spectrum of research areas within the College of Medicine and Health. It supports everything from fundamental science to applied health research. The only requirement is that candidates must complete their fellowship within the College of Medicine and Health.

The panel is looking for clear evidence of a positive career trajectory and sustained momentum, demonstrated through publications or the receipt of small grants. Particular emphasis will be placed on the strength and potential impact of the proposed fellowship to be submitted to an external funder.

Yes, you may resubmit a previous application. However, only one resubmission is allowed per applicant. The revised proposal must show meaningful improvements — this could involve addressing feedback from the review panel or incorporating new preliminary data to strengthen the submission.

If you're currently employed, you'll need to resign from your position, so your start date will depend on your notice period. If your existing contract is naturally concluding, you can begin as soon as it's finished. From the time you receive an offer, we expect participants to start the Springboard program within six months.
