Ina Schim van der Loeff
Academic Clinical Lectureship in Paediatrics
What have you gained from it?
• This is my first independent funding and has given me the ability to maintain a formal academic record
• Paid time to complete postdoctoral research, including generating preliminary data for fellowship funding
• Time to write animal project license (PPL)
What would you recommend about it to others?
While not impossible without the paid time the ACL is providing, the ACL is proving indispensable for my work towards senior postdoctoral publications, senior fellowship applications and writing project licenses in order to eventually establish an independent research group in T cell biology while achieving a CCT in paediatric immunology and infectious diseases at an internationally renowned centre for haematopoietic stem cell transplant for inborn errors of the immune system.
