Royal Society Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellows 2021
The Royal Society and the Leverhulme Trust have announced the appointment of seven new Royal Society Leverhulme Trust Senior Research Fellows.
Funded by the Leverhulme Trust, the scheme seeks to provide opportunities for experienced academic researchers to focus on full-time research for up to one year, by relieving them of all their teaching and administrative duties during that period.
