Other Post-Doctoral Opportunities
These are organised and funded by the MRC London Institute of Medical Sciences at Imperial College London. Emphasis is placed on the development of well-rounded researchers equally strong in both clinical research and basic science. Fellows are expected to carry out their research in one of the LMS’s world-leading basic science groups. The LMS offers Clinical Lectureship posts to provide support for clinician scientists who have already successfully completed a PhD or post-doctoral fellowship in basic science.
The 4-year Lectureships have been awarded since 2014 in Renal Medicine, Cardiovascular Sciences, Endocrinology and Metabolism, and Haematology. Funding is provided for the Lecturer’s salary, a consumables allocation and a technician.

The Advanced Fellowship is for those at a post-doctoral level and aimed at several specific points of a researcher’s career development.
The fellowship is between 2 and 5 years and can be completed on full-time or part-time basis. Between 50% and 100% whole time equivalent (WTE).
Advanced Fellowships will be available with a ‘clinical academic’ option whereby clinical applicants will have the option to request up to 40% of their time be dedicated to clinical service/development which would be covered by the Fellowship. Recruitment usually happens in 2 rounds per year - April and October.
