Applications are invited for Clinical Research Fellowships leading to a PhD. The Fellowships are available to medically qualified individuals who are undertaking their specialist training in any clinical discipline, and who want to obtain a PhD with a view to an academic career in any branch of cancer research. Eligibility to practice clinically within the UK is an essential qualification.
Fellowships for 2018 are to be held in member research groups of the CRUK Cambridge Centre aligned to one of four research Programmes:
- Aerodigestive Cancers Programme
- Breast Cancer Programme
- Early Detection Programme
- Pancreatic Cancer Programme
For details of the projects on offer within these Programmes, please see: https://crukcambridgecentre.org.uk/education-and-training/ccc-clinical-research-fellowships-2018
Applicants will chose their preferred Programme and short-listed candidates will be invited to interview, at which their career intentions and preferred PhD project will be discussed. Successful applicants will subsequently develop a detailed project proposal with their chosen Programme and host laboratory, prior to applying for admission as a PhD student to the University of Cambridge.
CRUK Cambridge Centre Clinical Research Fellowships are financed by Cancer Research UK and provide clinicians with funds to cover a full-time 3 year PhD degree. This includes a clinical salary and University Composition Fees at the 'UK/EU' rate. Overseas applicants may apply for these positions, and will usually be eligible to apply for the reduced staff University Composition Fee (UCF). This is one third of either the full- or part-time Home Student UCF, for all qualifying students, irrespective of whether they are classified as UK, EU or Overseas. Successful international applicants would be required to apply for the reduced staff UCF via their host department, and if they are not eligible they may be required to self-fund the cost difference between Overseas and UK/EU fees; this is approximately £18,408 per year for 3 years.
