International Research Scholars Program

The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, The Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI), The Wellcome Trust and The Gulbenkian Foundation, are jointly holding a competition to award grants to outstanding early career scientists working outside the United States and other G7 countries.

This International Research Scholars Program aims to provide support for promising international scientists and to bring them into an eco-system that can foster their work and allow them to better understand and address biomedical issues of global relevance.

The competition is open to scientists who have trained in the U.S. or United Kingdom for at least one year. Additionally, eligible scientists must have run their own labs for less than seven years, and work in one of the eligible countries. Australia is an eligible country. 

Each scientist who is selected will receive a total of US $650,000 over five years.

Application deadline with MRO is Monday 20 June 2016 and Thursday 30 June 2016 with HHMI
