The Translational Medicine Training (TMT) Fellowship Programme at Imperial College, funded by the Wellcome Trust and GlaxoSmithkline, is designed to train the next generation of clinician scientists in Experimental Medicine.

A central theme is the development and application of new tools of clinical investigation to test hypotheses about human pathophysiology and evaluate new treatments in vivo. Because of the high density of state-of-the-art PET and MRI equipment at the Hammersmith Campus, there is a strong emphasis on the use of clinical imaging.

Clinical Fellows will be based on the Hammersmith Campus and benefit from:

1. The internationally renowned academic environment of Imperial College.
2. The Wellcome Trust McMichael Centre for Clinical Research
3. The Imanova Clinical Imaging Centre (CIC)

Your project

Fellows will be able to match a project suitable to their medical career goals from a portfolio of research programmes. Each Fellow will register for 3 years for a higher degree (MPhil/PhD) and have one supervisor from Imperial College and one from GSK. During their tenure in the TMT programme, Fellows will meet regularly with their supervisors, as well as with the other Fellows and will participate in the active seminar series and structured teaching modules developed specifically to meet their needs.
