The Academy of Medical Sciences offers internships to PhD students funded by the Medical Research Council (MRC) or the Wellcome Trust to undertake three months of first-hand experience of the medical science policy environment.

Interns will gain insights into how research can impact on policy, and build valuable networks with the UK’s most eminent medical scientists and key science and health stakeholders. They will also receive a three-month extension to their PhD maintenance stipend and a discretionary travel grant.

The deadline for applications for MRC-funded PhD students is 31 October 2011 (the deadline for Wellcome Trust-funded PhD students will be advertised in Spring 2012). For more information please follow the link below.
