The Academy of Medical Sciences Grants and Programmes internship scheme is now open for applications for internships beginning from March 2024.
More details can be found on the website and the application form can be found here.
Applications are welcomed for 3 month internships between March 2024 and January 2025. The scheme is open to BBSRC-funded PhD students through the PIPS scheme.
The deadline for applications is noon, Monday 5th February 2024.
The scheme is designed to give students first-hand experience of the research funding and career development sectors, and to build valuable networks with the UK’s most eminent medical scientists and senior science and health stakeholders. There is a booklet of case studies of previous holders of both the grants and programmes and policy internships at the Academy which has more information on the kind of work interns can get involved with.
The Academy works in a hybrid, agile way and most staff split their time between the office and home working. They can consider remote internships (some office attendance may be required initially for induction), however interns can also use the office at 41 Portland Place, London.
If you have any further questions, get in touch with Dr Kim Hutchings, Senior Grants Manager Kimberly.Hutchings@acmedsci.ac.uk who will be happy to discuss this with anyone that may be interested.
