Independent Research Fellows
Warwick Chemistry has a strong track record of hosting early career researchers, providing mentoring support and the resources to establish scientific independence and accelerate career trajectories into permanent academic posts. The Department is a dynamic environment, where cutting-edge research is fostered by access to world-class facilities, state-of-the-art equipment (within the Department and through the University Research Technology Platforms) and specialist technical support. We welcome expressions of interest from exceptional individuals across all areas of the chemical sciences to join our community. This includes those who would like to apply for an independent fellowship, or who have recently secured funding but feel that moving to Warwick would be beneficial for their career development.
