About our clinical PhD fellowships

Our clinical PhD fellowships are provided to develop and support future leaders in clinical cancer research. The Clinical Academic Training Programme, ICR-Imperial is a programme which will provide clinical academics with the expertise to discover, develop, and deliver the next generation of treatments, technologies, and methodologies into clinical care.

The fellowship awards include tuition fees, research expenses, and a clinical salary. Applicants from a range of clinical specialities are invited to apply, including oncology, paediatrics, radiology, surgery, anaesthesia, and haematology.
