Call for Early Career Researchers (ECRs) from Egypt to apply for the British Council’s International Strategic Partnership fund (ISFP) Early Career Fellowship scheme, which will be hosted by the University of Leeds, School of Dentistry. The International Science Partnerships Fund puts research and innovation at the heart of our international relationships, supporting UK researchers and innovators to work with peers around the world on the major themes of our time: planet, health, tech and talent. This fellowship opportunity will be hosted by the University of Leeds, School of Dentistry. Overview Of The Role The British Council is sponsoring three Early Career Research Fellows from Egypt to be hosted by the School of Dentistry at the University of Leeds. They will join a research programme focused on advanced scientific projects. The fellows will be assigned to one of the following research projects based on their expertise: Stem Cell Characterisation in Health and Disease (2 positions available) Development and Characterisation of an Alternative Antimicrobial Biomaterial for Regenerative Dentistry Applications (1 position available) The fellowship offers a dynamic and collaborative environment, providing fellows with opportunities to contribute to groundbreaking research and develop their careers. The Early Career Researchers will receive a comprehensive lab induction and initial training to support them in their roles.
