The International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), part of UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) is offering Collaborative Research Fellowships programme for three years to support promising early career researchers to deliver challenging research and support the development of long-term collaborative working relationships between the UK and IIASA research communities.

About the fellowship:

This fellowship programme has been developed by NERC and IIASA to:

  • support the development of skills for early career environmental scientists in a subset of systems analysis and applied statistics in topics of relevance to policy
  • build and foster sustainable collaborative interdisciplinary relationships between the UK and IIASA research communities
  • develop and support capacity building of interdisciplinary systems researchers that could establish themselves as the next generation of research leaders working across both NERC and IIASA remits.
  • Fellows will be expected to spend their time equally between their UK research organisation and IIASA over the lifetime of their award.
  • Fellows are to be supported in these activities by a senior researcher who will act as both mentor to the fellow and help to facilitate network-building activities.

Funding: £1 million is available to support research fellowships through this call.
