Fellowship advice

The Department of Infectious Disease's mission is to apply excellent science and develop new approaches to address the unmet clinical needs for the control of infectious disease, both here in the UK and internationally. Our investigators study all aspects of infectious disease ranging from the fundamental science of microbial pathogens to the clinical outcomes of the infections they cause.

We are actively seeking to support Fellowship applications. One of our key objectives as a Department is to inspire the next generation of infectious disease scientists, which includes developing the careers of our postdoctoral Fellows. We welcome all enthusiastic academics and practitioners to join our Department as Fellows. In particular, we encourage applications from female scientists and scientists from diverse backgrounds who are currently underrepresented within our academic and research community.

On this page, we will introduce you to current Fellows in our Department, as well as signposting relevant funding opportunities and further guidance. For an informal conversation about Fellowship opportunities and applications, please contact our Research Manager, Paula Kirby (p.kirby@imperial.ac.uk).
