One-Year Research Fellowship
Subject to confirmation, and receipt of sufficiently high-quality applications that make it through peer review and viva, our one-year Research Fellowship is an award to members of the Royal College of Surgeons of England to undertake clinical research into selected projects in order to extend the frontiers of surgery and develop new operative techniques.
​
The damage and disfigurement caused by serious burns, major soft-tissue trauma and disease can be life-changing.
The Blond McIndoe Research Foundation is committed to advancing research into techniques and technologies that repair, restore and regenerate tissue and reduce debilitating scarring.

Our charitable objective is:
The promotion and carrying out of research into tissue regeneration, replacement and reconstruction, wound healing, burns and plastic surgery, and the dissemination of useful results thereof.
