Former Postdocs
Postdoc Academy Fellows
The Postdoc Academy has hosted two unique fellowships for some of Cambridge’s most outstanding researchers as they reached the pivotal career transition to independence - The Borysiewicz Interdisciplinary Fellowship and the Canada-UK Postdoctoral Fellowship for Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
The postdocs who were selected to undertake these fellowships acquired the confidence to apply their skills to complex challenges across the research, innovation, and policy fields as they took their next steps towards career independence.
Where are they now?
We caught up with our first cohort of Fellows in a two-part podcast to find out what they did after completing their Fellowships in 2019.
In part one, we talked to three incredible individuals who have embarked on amazing careers outside of academia - spanning the United Nations, World Health Organisation, Amazon, and national government.
