Dr Hannah Long who recently obtained her DPhil from Rob Klose and Roger Patient's lab has been awarded a prestigious Sir Henry Wellcome Postdoctoral Fellowship. This fellowship provides a unique opportunity for the most promising newly qualified postdoctoral researchers to make an early start in developing their independent research careers, working in the best research environments in the UK and overseas. Candidates will be expected to identify an important biomedical research question and to develop and deliver a personal programme to achieve their research aims.
