UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships scheme – Deadline: 7th June 2018

Closing date: 7 June 2018

The UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) Future Leaders Fellowships scheme (FLF) aims to develop, retain, attract and sustain research and innovation talent in the UK. Providing up to seven years of funding for at least 550 early-career researchers and innovators, the scheme will tackle difficult and novel challenges.

UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships can be held at any UK-based organisation currently registered as eligible to apply to the research councils (such as higher education institutes, research council institutes and eligible independent research organisations), or Innovate UK. Companies or other privately owned research organisations are encouraged to host UKRI Future Leaders Fellowships if they can provide an innovation and/or research environment of international standing.

There will be six calls for the FLFs, with two calls taking place each year over the next three years. Applications can be submitted in any area of research or innovation covered by the research councils and Innovate UK.

The submission deadline for the first FLF call is 3 July 2018, with a mandatory expression of interest required by 7 June 2018.
