In July 2008 we awarded four outstanding women fellowships worth £15,000 each.

Launched in 2007, the fellowships are tenable at any UK or Irish university or research institution to support 12 months of post doctoral research in the life of physical sciences.

The prize money can be spent in any number of innovative ways to enable women scientists to further their careers and facilitate world class research.

The call for applications for the 2009 national fellowships will be announced in January.
