The McDonald Fellowships program welcomes applications from young researchers focused on multiple sclerosis (MS), achronic disorder of the central nervous system.
The fellowship supports a two-year research placement at an institution outside of the applicant’s home country for individuals from low- and middle-income countries who wish to advance their skills.
Benefits
The fellowship provides an annual grant of £30,000 to cover travel and living costs, including an additional £2,000 for the host institution each year.
Who can apply
Early-career MS researchers who meet the following criteria are eligible to apply:
- Applicants are from a low- or middle-income country, as defined by the World Bank.
- They are either working or studying in a low- or middle-income country at the time of application.
Application process
Applying for the fellowship involves preparing a proposal for a two-year research project to be conducted at a host institution outside of the candidate’s home country. The project should focus on an area that will contribute to the understanding or treatment of MS. The successful applicant will be expected to use the skills gained during the fellowship to make a lasting impact on MS research in their home nation.
