Eligibility and suitability

Who can apply

You can apply for an International Intermediate Fellowship if:

you're a national of a low- or middle-income country
your proposed research focuses on a health priority in a low- or middle-income country
you have sponsorship from an eligible host organisation in a low- or middle-income country.

You should be driving your own research and be ready to lead an independent research programme.

You can apply if:

you have a PhD or you're a clinically qualified doctor (and qualified to enter higher specialist training), vet, dentist or clinically qualified psychologist
you have significant research experience
you have made important contributions to your area of research eg publications, patents, software development or an impact on health policy or practice.

You can apply if you have a permanent or rolling employment contract, but only if you're at the early stages of an independent career. Please contact us first to discuss.

This scheme may be of particular interest if you're an early-career fellow (such as an International Training Fellow) and this fellowship is the next step in your career as a research scientist.

If you've been away from research (eg for a career break, maternity leave, or long-term sick leave), we'll allow for this when we consider your application.

Your research proposal

Your research proposal should be within our science remit and focus on a health priority in a low- or middle-income country.

When we consider your application, we'll look at:

your research contributions
the scientific merit of your proposed project
the significance of the research
the feasibility of your proposal
the suitability of your sponsor and host environment for both your research and for the development of your independent career.

By the end of this fellowship you should:

have achieved international standing in your area of research
be leading your own research programme
have the skills and experience to apply for senior level fellowships or permanent positions at a research organisation.

For more information, read our Guidance on International Intermediate Fellowships [DOCX 26KB].

Who can't apply

You can't apply if:

you've previously held, or currently hold, an internationally competitive fellowship at an equivalent level eg MRC/DFID African Research Leader scheme
you're a researcher in India – instead see the Wellcome Trust/Department of Biotechnology India Alliance(opens in a new tab)
you're currently applying for another Wellcome fellowship.

If you've already been unsuccessful with a full application for this scheme, please contact us before you apply again.

What's expected of your host organisation

You must be based at an eligible host organisation in a low- or middle-income country for the research project. This could be your current organisation or a different one.

When your host organisation submits your application, they must agree to provide the space and resources you'll need from the start date through to the end date of your award.
