Wellcome Trust International Training Fellowships: Who Qualifies and What You Get

Learn how early-career researchers in health and clinical nutrition can secure funding for salary and research expenses for up to three years.

This fellowship provides funding to help researchers advance their professional development in the field of health and clinical nutrition.

Who it's for

This scheme is designed for researchers who are in the early stages of their careers and are working within the fields of health and clinical nutrition.

What you get

If you receive the fellowship, you will receive funding to cover your salary, the costs of conducting your research, and expenses related to your professional training. This support can last for up to three years.

What it costs you

To apply, you must secure a letter of support from a host institution that confirms they will support your work during the fellowship period.

The catch to know

Your research must focus specifically on outcomes related to human health. Projects that focus solely on basic food science without a clear connection to human health outcomes may not be successful.

How to apply

  1. Review the research requirements to ensure your work focuses on human health.
  2. Contact a host institution to secure a formal support letter.
  3. Prepare your research and training plan.
  4. Submit your application through the official portal.
