The Health Research Fellowship Scheme aimed to support individuals to become independent researchers through leading and undertaking high-quality research.           

The fellowship offered up to three years full-time funding (or four or five years part-time), to individuals who had no more than 60-months full-time equivalent (FTE) postdoctoral research experience at the time of applying. Applications were invited from individuals who worked across any health-related or scientific discipline to undertake research with demonstrable public, health service practice or policy benefit that added to the health research evidence base.
