FMNHS Bridging Postdoctoral Fellowships 2022 (Round 2) – Applications Now Open

Submissions close on Tuesday 26 April 2022 at 5:00pm (AEST)


The Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences (FMNHS) will provide competitive funding in 2022 to support the career development of promising newly qualified postdoctoral researchers and final year PhD students.

These FMNHS Bridging Postdoctoral Fellowships (BPF) are intended to provide initial support for recent PhD graduates and final year PhD students while they apply for externally funded fellowships (or an equivalent external funding scheme that provides salary support to the Fellow as a Chief Investigator). This includes recent PhD graduates and final year PhD students from Monash University Malaysia (Jeffrey Cheah School of Medicine and Health Sciences).

Applications should be made by the Fellowship candidate in consultation with their proposed Mentor, who must be employed in the FMNHS at Monash University. Mentors would normally be the Fellowship candidate’s line manager (for PhD graduates) or PhD supervisor (for PhD students), and therefore the mentor must be a member of staff.

Successful candidates will be invited to present on their work at an MNHS Town Hall session in the second half of 2022.
