Abstract
THE Medical Research Council invites applications for a fourth series of studentships and fellowships intended to encourage young British medical graduates towards becoming investigators in those branches of medical science which are concerned directly with disease as it occurs in human beings. Post-graduate studentships are offered for medical graduates who have already held house appointments and are strongly inclined to a career in clinical science or experimental pathology. Each selected student will receive a stipend at the rate of £200 per annum, during a period not exceeding twelve months, for personal maintenance while undertaking approved courses of study in Great Britain such as may be regarded as best calculated to advance the student's training in methods of research. Research fellowships are also offered for candidates of similar qualifications who have already had some experience in the use of research methods. Each fellowship will be tenable for one year at the ordinary value of £250 per annum, and will be renewable in approved instances at the rate of £300 per annum for a second year. These fellowships are intended as probationary appointments for research in clinical science or experimental pathology under suitable direction in Great Britain. Research expenses may be provided in addition to stipend. Further information can be obtained from the Secretary, Medical Research Council, 38 Old Queen Street, London, S.W.1.
