Anatomical Society Research Studentships
Anatomical Society Research Studentships 2026/27
The Anatomical Society offers a limited number of Research Studentships, normally held in University departments whose field of work includes Anatomical Sciences, in the UK and Ireland. Applications will be invited from early May 2026 invited from prospective supervisors for Research Studentships to commence in October 2026. The closing date for applications is likely to be mid-August 2026 – exact date to be confirmed.
For the eighth year, the Society is reserving a studentship for an early career investigator (ECI). An ECI is a person with a lectureship or independent research fellowship who is within 12 years of being awarded a PhD, exclusive of career breaks, who has guaranteed employment for the duration of the studentship and who has not held an AS PhD Studentship previously. The application will be judged according to different criteria than the regular studentship submissions, with more emphasis on project design and training provided than on track record. The proposal will still have to meet the high standard expected.
The advertisement, application forms, information and conditions will be made available early May 2026 via the links below or alternatively, contact the Honorary Secretary, Professor Joanna Matthan, care of maryanne.piggott@kcl.ac.uk
