Deadline: Open

University of Liverpool's Clinical PhD Fellowships are tailored for clinical researchers, including doctors, midwives, nurses, public health professionals, allied health professionals and veterinarians, spanning various scientific disciplines. These fellowships are designed for individuals aspiring to become clinical academics, with a specific focus on addressing Health Priorities in the Global South.

Fellowships typically span a maximum of three years, with a minimum of 12 months spent in the Global South, focusing on clinical research that addresses local health needs.

Please note that the subject of the PhD must relate to human health and not exclusively to animal health. These fellowships are primarily intended for clinicians in the early stages of their academic careers, and the associated salaries are reflective of this. Veterinary applicants will be encouraged to enrol with a specialist college.

They are dedicated to removing financial barriers so you can focus on your research and academic growth. Their programme provides fully-funded fellowships, covering all essential aspects to support your research journey:

• Salary and tuition: They cover your salary costs, in-country taxation costs*, and tuition fees, ensuring your financial stability while pursuing your PhD.
• Research budget: You'll have access to a generous budget of £110k for research consumables and activities, empowering your research activities.
• Work-related travel: They offer £2.5k for work-related travel to facilitate collaboration and exploration.
• Training activities: A budget of £5k is allocated for your training activities, ensuring your academic growth.
