The McDonald Fellowships enable early career multiple research scientists from low and middle-income nations to work in an academic institution outside of their home country.<\/span>\u00a0We\u2019re open to proposals for local or virtual projects that beat the travel restrictions created by the COVID-19 virus.<\/span>\u00a0When participating in the virtual or visit project, participants can either develop expertise or complete part in joint research initiatives.<\/span><\/p>\n

The McDonald Fellowships is comprised of two years of funding, which is around PS30,000 GBP each year, for living and travel expenses, as well as an additional payment of up to PS2,000 GBP each year to the institution hosting the fellowship.<\/span>\u00a0*For 2023, we will be more flexible in the allocation of funds when virtual projects are being proposed.<\/span><\/p>\n

One Fellowship is given in conjunction in partnership with ECTRIMS and is also known as The\u00a0McFarland Fellowship of MSIF and ECTRIMS.<\/span><\/p>\n
