Postdoctoral Fellowship Success
PAIS has been extremely successful in attracting early career researchers into the department on postdoctoral fellowships. It currently has thirteen postdoctoral fellows amongst its staff members, some who have come to the department on big grants and others through winning individually awarded fellowships through dedicated PDF schemes.
