LKAS Readerships: Qualifying Fellowships
Qualifying fellowships for the LKAS Readership scheme must have been funded by a competitive source that is external to the employing institution. THe table below provides such a list of qualifying competitive research fellowships, and is adapted from the supplementary material to the REF2021 consultation on the draft guidance on submissions and on panel criteria.
The qualifying status of candidates will be assessed against the list below. Group leaders in a UKRI-funded research centre also qualify for the scheme, as well as equivalent fellowships from non-UK funding bodies and equivalent markers of esteem from industry.
