There are also detail of the upcoming Fellows 2016 launch webinar on 11 September at 3pm which will provide more details about the Fellowship Programme, and where you can ask questions directly to the Institute's Community team and some of our Fellows. We are looking for applicants at any career stage who can demonstrate a passion for their area, the ability to communicate ideas effectively, and a real interest in the role of software in research.
