Fellowships
A Daphne Jackson Fellowship is a unique Fellowship designed to return scientists, engineers and technologists to their careers after a break. Fellowships are normally undertaken on a part time basis in a university or research establishment in the UK. They are flexible and include a tailored training programme designed to update the skills and knowledge of the Fellow thus allowing them to return at the appropriate level to their career.
The Fellowship is normally part time for two years and the Fellow is paid a salary, with a small additional allowance for expenses such as conference attendance. Fellowships are held within a university research laboratory or in a suitable research division in an industrial establishment in the UK.
"I have been familiar with the Daphne Jackson Memorial Fellowships Trust for some time. I regard it as an extraordinarily important and successful programme, to which I would accord the highest priority. I am not in the habit of automatically ticking the 'top one percent' boxes on application forms, but in this case I have unhesitatingly dome so. this is a programme that really does make a difference."
