Applications are invited for a behavioural science fellowship with a psychophysiology focus, jointly hosted by GCHQ and the University of Manchester. The fellowship will provisionally run between January 2024 and March 2025, with an expected extension to December 2025.

Fellows will pursue a research project, focused upon psychophysiology and designed in consultation with colleagues in GCHQ, addressing issues relevant to national security and GCHQ’s own research agenda. Some of the research will assume a standard academic form and fellows will be expected to pursue its publication in relevant academic journals, suitable for submission in the Research Excellence Framework, subject to GCHQ approval. Some will be classified and intended for use by GCHQ and their partner organisations only and will be shared internally within the national security community. Fellows will therefore gain experience of two very different research environments and of negotiating the complexities of working between them.

Applications

In addition to completing the application form applicants must submit a current CV and an application letter explaining why they want the fellowship and why they are a strong candidate for it
