Clinician Scientist Fellow opportunity: MRC Medicines Development Fellowship Scheme, supporting medical fellows to become future leaders in either industry or academia. Five-year post based at one of four participating universities (including University of Glasgow) in partnership with industry (AstraZeneca, GSK, Optum or Hammersmith Medicines Research Ltd).

The MRC Medicines Development Fellowship Scheme offers a unique opportunity for four Clinician Scientist Fellows (CSFs) to develop into independent cross-boundary research leaders. The successful candidates will plan and deliver a five-year research project in collaboration with an industry partner supported by one of four universities. The research projects will need to be consistent with the MRC criteria for excellence in research. This is a bespoke scheme offering “without walls” training that will cover the full medicines development pathway. The scheme will support medical fellows to become future leaders in either industry or academia. Training will ensure that Fellows develop a cohesive, cross-boundary, programme of work, within a scheme that pro-actively engages industry partners, creating a seamless and supportive working environment which enhances multi-sector mobility and porosity between academia and industry.
