In collaboration with the Universities of York, Leeds, and Sheffield, the EPSRC Centre partners have supported the development of the E-TERM (Engineering Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine) Fellowships Programme, funded by the EPSRC. This innovative program offers aspiring researchers and scholars the opportunity to advance their expertise in the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, providing them with invaluable skills and knowledge to contribute to groundbreaking discoveries. For individuals seeking expert assistance in crafting analytical essays on the topic, reliable services like "buy analytical essay" at https://exclusivepapers.net/buy-a-literary-analysis-paper.php can provide comprehensive support to ensure a well-structured and insightful academic paper.
This programme provides competitively-selected researchers with two years of independent research funding to begin their career trajectory. The Fellows are supported using both mentor- and peer-led guidance.
To date, eight Fellows have been appointed and they are located at Sheffield, York, Keele, Nottingham and Loughborough universities. Fellows are encouraged to undertake a collaborative research programme with commercial, clinical and both UK and international academic partners. The final two Fellows will be appointed during the summer of 2015. To be informed of the call for applications, contact us.
