The Discovery Research Program Fellowship
The Movember Institute Discovery Fellowship is a three-year award for Postdoctoral Fellows in the USA to lead their own program of research, be mentored by world-leading Professorial Fellow Daphne Watkins at the University of Michigan and join a global cohort tackling the most pressing challenges in boys' and young men's (aged 12-35 years) emotional and relational health. Discovery Fellows will establish a program of research across one or more thematic areas: 1) Coping and Consumption; 2) Social Connection; or 3) Early Fatherhood.
This funding opportunity is open to Postdoctoral Fellows who were awarded their PhD in the past 5 years (excluding periods of extended leave or career disruption). Applicants must be a citizen or resident of the host country, with the right to work there. Track record will be assessed relative to career stage.
Fellowship Awards of up to USD$70,000 per year, indexed annually, plus an annual research support allocation of USD$10,000, over three years will be awarded to undertake projects starting in early 2027. The Fellowship also comes with regular learning and development opportunities through the Movember Institute of Men’s Health and funded international networking and convening opportunities with your peers and experts in men’s health.
