Australasian Fellowship Scheme
Australasian Fellowship

 

APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2027 FELLOWSHIP are open.

The ABN Australasian Fellowships are 12-month clinical placements in Australia commencing late January/early February and expected to complement the clinical training in the UK. Applications are open to Neurology trainees who hold a UK Training post.

The posts will give the fellow 12 months' accreditation towards their CCT in neurology. This annual scheme commenced in 2013 and parallels the very successful ANZAN Fellowships to the UK that have been running for more than 20 years.

The recipient Australasian cities vary and will be confirmed when applications close each year.

Host site for 2027 Fellowship: TBC 

Application Process

Applications are open to Neurology trainees who hold a UK Training post.

Applications typically open in September each year followed by interviews in February/March of the next year. 

The early application process allows the successful applicants as much time as possible to complete the necessary paperwork and also allow local training programme directors to fill the vacant training slot back in the UK.

Interviews will follow for shortlisted applicants via Zoom.

What you need to apply:
  • Cover letter
  • Up to date CV
  • Statement from your TPD

Deadline: Monday 19 January 2026 at 23:59.
