The John Innes Centre (JIC), Norwich, UK is a world leading centre of excellence in plant and microbial sciences based on the Norwich Research Park. We are inviting applications from outstanding researchers who either hold, or wish to apply for Independent Research Fellowships [such as a BBSRC David Phillips Fellowship (http://www.bbsrc.ac.uk/funding/fellowships/david-phillips.aspx), or a Royal Society University Research Fellowship (http://royalsociety.org/grants/schemes/university-research/)], to attend a Conference at the JIC on 18th April 2016. At the meeting you will be able to present a talk about your proposed area of research and to discuss your proposals, the development of your group and your future career plans in depth with senior JIC Scientists.
After the Conference we will select and mentor outstanding candidates in writing Fellowship applications and/or offer the opportunity to move existing Fellowships to the JIC. Considerable additional resources will be provided to Fellows by the Centre.
