The BHF Oxford Centre of Research Excellence (BHF Oxford CRE) Transition Fellowships Programme aims to support and develop outstanding postdoctoral researchers with either a basic science or clinical background (https://www.cardioscience.ox.ac.uk/bhf-centre-of-research-excellence/funding-opportunities/transition-research-fellowships). The fellowships are for two years, supporting the researchers’ transition to securing highly competitive external funding opportunities, and their emerging independence in a field that will add value to the Oxford cardiovascular research programme.

 

Applications are invited in any of the four Oxford BHF CRE research themes. The proposed research project will be hosted by a cardiovascular research group at the University of Oxford, and should be developed in liaison with a sponsor who is an Oxford BHF CRE Principal Investigator (PI).  A list of BHF CRE Research Themes and all Principal Investigators are listed on the Oxford Cardiovascular Science website: https://www.cardioscience.ox.ac.uk/bhf-centre-of-research-excellence. 

 

Prospective candidates are encouraged to make informal enquiries to Professor Hugh Watkins (hugh.watkins@rdm.ox.ac.uk) or Philippa Major, Research Facilitator for the Oxford BHF CRE (philippa.major@cardiov.ox.ac.uk ). 

 

Application deadline: 12noon on Wednesday 29th May 2024. 

 

Interviews will be held as soon as possible thereafter. Fellowships must commence by 30th September 2024 at the latest.
