Wellcome Early-Career Awards

Wellcome funds early-career researchers developing independent projects that advance understanding or methods relevant to life, health and wellbeing.

Administering organizations must be in the UK or an eligible low- or middle-income country in Africa, South Asia or South-East Asia, excluding mainland China.
