We are looking for an aspirational, passionate and impact-driven scientist for a Research Fellowship as an early-career investigator to develop an independent research programme. The fellowships will run for 3 years in the first instance, with an extension for up to a further two years dependent on review and funding (5 years maximum). The Fellowship must focus on research with potential for impact in small-holder farming systems, in particular improving climate resilience for nutrient-rich crops, for instance legumes. We particularly invite applications from researchers working on crops of relevance to small-holder farmers in sub-Saharan Africa.
