Independent Research Fellow Progression at JIC

Fellows at JIC receive mentoring in career progression and additional training to support their development as research group leaders.

Undertaking a five-year fellowship at JIC is seen as a staging towards a formal assessment for a tenured Project Leader post at the JIC.

Fellows are part of the Junior Faculty at JIC.

During their five-year fellowship, Fellows are formally assessed on their future research plans and scientific outputs against clear criteria by a senior panel of JIC scientists.

Fellows who successfully meet all the criteria will be transferred to the tenure-track programme.
