Thank you, Michael, you've answered my question :) Just to clarify where Michael said:
"The last thing we had on our minds was to provide “work experience” for recent graduates, or even for “postgraduates”. The target was the mid-career researchers, probably in their 30s, with an interest in such matters."
Postgraduates ARE eligible for the British Science Association fellowships, provided they're intending a career in science and have a minimum two years postgraduate experience (http://www.britishscienceassociation.org/web/scienceinsociety/MediaFellowships/FAQ.htm). See:
>3. I am currently part way through my PhD, am I eligible?
>Yes, as long as you have a minimum of 2 years postgraduate experience (either working or studying), permission from your funders to take the time > out of your research and can balance the workload.
