Applying for fellowships can be an important path to success in an academic career. For early-career scientists, it can be a daunting task, and practical advice can be hard to find. 

This two-hour course will seek to remedy the situation by giving practical advice for early-career scientists from across UCL. 

The event will consist of talks from academics who have been part of advanced fellowship selection panels, and advice from a successful past applicants based on their experience. There will be plenty of time for questions and dedicated Q&A sessions
