> The Wellcome Trust invites applications for its university awards.
> These enable universities to attract research staff by providing
> support for up to five years, after which the award holder takes up a
> guaranteed permanent post in the university. A monograph and other
> substantial publications are expected to result from an award.
> Teaching and other non-research commitments are therefore expected to
> be minimal during the period of full support. Applicants must be
> nominated by their prospective head of department. Support is normally
> available only at lecturer level, although in exceptional cases awards
> to senior-lecturer level may be possible. Up to five years' support is
> available, providing full salary for three years, 50 per cent in the
> fourth year and 25 per cent in the fifth year. Travel expenses to
> attend meetings are provided for five years, but research expenses are
> provided for the first three years of the award only.
>
> Closing date: 18 July 2014
> Preliminary applications due by 18 July; invited full applications due
> by 26 September 2014.
