New applications for UCL Provost’s Venture Research Fellowship invited

Nick Lane (UCL Genetics, Evolution & Environment) addresses one of the most fundamental questions: how did complex life arise? He does so as the inaugural UCL Provost's Venture Research Fellow, a programme for which new applications are invited. Less than three years after being appointed, Lane now leads the UCL Research Frontiers programme on Origins of Life, which was recently awarded a c£250,000 Leverhulme Trust Research Project Grant. The latest account of his work, Life: is it inevitable or just a fluke? , appears in New Scientist . New applications are invited for the Fellowship. Lane reflects on his experience: - "My time as the first UCL Provost's Venture Research Fellow is drawing to an end, and it has been an immensely rich experience. More than that - it promises to continue, because ideas grow and become more conventionally fundable. This is just the beginning.
