The SERI Junior Overseas Scientist Fellowship is an immersion opportunity designed for budding researchers in ophthalmology and visual sciences. It provides a platform to nurture young scientists and clinician-scientists around the world and advance their training in these fields, as well as to establish collaborative network between them and SERI.
The Fellowship will require minimum 3 months and maximum 6 months of full-time commitment, typically between July 2015 to December 2015, and this is contingent to the nature of the project.
Each Fellow will be placed under the direct supervision of a Host Principal Investigator at SERI. A proposed training programme has to be jointly developed with the Host PI and be submitted as part of the application.
WORTH
- Monthly stipend of S$3,000 during the course of Fellowship
- The Fellow will have to undertake his/her own arrangements insofar as his/her flight and living arrangements in Singapore are concerned. Ideally this should be prepared prior to his/her arrival at Singapore.
ELIGIBILITY
- Self-driven individual with a strong interest in ophthalmology and visual sciences research
- PhD graduate with no more than 5 years of postdoctoral experience, OR MBBS graduate with no more than 5 years of clinical experience
- Not based in Singapore
- Not holding another concurrent fellowship or position of similar nature in Singapore during the proposed period of Fellowship
DEADLINE: 30th January, 2015
