The primary purpose of the JDRF Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme is to attract qualified, promising scientists entering their professional career in the T1D research field. The scheme is intended for those in a relatively early stage in their career.
Funding & Duration
Awards are for three years, assuming satisfactory progress. The fellowship term is 12 months for each fellowship year, and fellows must devote 100% of their effort to the project outlined in the fellowship application. Award amounts are based on years of relevant postdoctoral experience at the time of activation.
