Lindemann Trust Fellowships

The English-Speaking Union offers up to five grants a year worth $130,000 each for postdoctoral scientists to carry out research in the USA. The Fellowships are awarded to graduates of exceptional promise in both the pure and applied physical sciences who have shown capacity for producing original research. Each fellowship lasts for two years and supports research in the fields of astronomy, biophysics, chemistry, engineering, geology, geophysics, mathematics and physics. To be eligible to apply, candidates must be British or Commonwealth citizens, a resident in the UK, and have recently completed a doctorate or be expecting to complete before the fellowship.
