PhD Plus awards are intended to extend a 3-year PhD into a 4-year studentship. The aim of these awards is to allow students who have already made outstanding progress to carry out additional studies that will greatly add to the value of their research and potentially result in high-quality papers or further funding.

We will also consider applications from clinical and surgical fellows to fund the final year of a 3-year PhD. 

Funding is for 6-12 months.

Applicants must be either Rosetrees-funded PhD students or fellows or work in a Rosetrees-funded laboratory (supervisor or co-supervisor holds an active Rosetrees grant). Students who have already submitted their PhD thesis are not eligible to apply.
