The application process for training fellowships in 2019-2020 is currently open. Early career scientists wanting to complete their training in those aspects of cancer research linked to the Agency’s mission are encouraged to apply. Disciplines covered are epidemiology (all disciplines included), biostatistics, bioinformatics, and areas associated with mechanisms of carcinogenesis such as cell and molecular biology, molecular genetics, epigenetics, and molecular pathology. Interdisciplinary projects are encouraged.
Fellowships are tenable at IARC in Lyon, France working in a research Group. Applicants are eligible from any low-and middle-income country (visit the World Bank link) since IARC is very keen to promote the development of experience in cancer research in these countries by training postdoctoral researchers that can return to apply their new skills and expertise. The Fellowship is for a period of two years, the second year is subject to satisfactory evaluation. Candidates need to have obtained their doctoral degree in the 5 years
prior to the start date of their Fellowship. Candidates in the final year of the PhD studies are eligible to apply but must have been awarded their degree by the time of starting their Fellowship (30 November 2019 at the latest). The working languages at IARC are French and English. Candidates should be proficient in English at a level sufficient for scientific communication. Candidates currently at IARC as fully-funded postdoctoral scientists, or applicants that have worked at the Agency as a postdoctoral scientist for a period greater than 6 months, cannot be considered. Candidates have to contact the host Group of their choice at IARC before applying in order to interact closely to establish a proposed programme of mutual interest. Contact the Group Heads could be made via the Agency’s website (research conducted by different IARC Groups and various contact details may be viewed here).The yearly stipend with dependant allowance is competitive compared to other global fellowship schemes. The cost of travelling for the Fellow, and in certain circumstances for dependants, will be met, and health insurance covered. Fellowships must be taken up by 30 November 2019.
Successful applicants will be notified by end of May 2019.
