NIHR Colt Foundation Advanced Fellowships

The Colt Foundation, in addition to its own fellowship programme, is partnering the NIHR to co-fund Advanced Fellowships in health and work research.

The Colt Foundation’s charitable purpose is closely aligned with the NIHR’s mission to improve the health and wealth of the nation through research.  By investing in academic career pathways for health and care researchers from all professional backgrounds, we are building the capacity and capabilities needed to tackle the complex health and care challenges of the future.  Through our partnership, we can maximise the value of research to the UK workforce.

All NIHR Colt Foundation Advanced Fellowships provide the opportunity to undertake exciting and impactful research that will underpin the researcher’s development as an independent future leader.

The Fellowship funds post-doctoral researchers at several specific points of career development.

The Fellowship funds:

  • full salary support, including protected time to concentrate on research
  • research costs
  • a bespoke training and development programme to meet individual needs

NIHR Colt Foundation Advanced Fellowships offer researchers the opportunity to be part of an active and supportive community, drawing on the enormous benefits and opportunities of cross-sector working including valuable input from patient groups.
