Inclusive Selection Statement for Early Independence: BBSRC Fellowships 2026

Overview

Submitting Your Inclusive Selection Statement

The deadline for completion is 16:00 23rd September 2026.

We require a single submission from each institution. Please decide within your institution who is best placed to do this.

Please note that there are no requirements to provide BBSRC with EDI data of your applicant pool. BBSRC have access to this data from the outline application stage and will compare this to the EDI data gathered at the full application stage.

What happens next

Your Inclusive Selection Statement will be reviewed by members of BBSRC’s Committee E (who assess fellowships) and EDI Expert Advisory Group. This review will be light-tough and focus on providing constructive feedback and achievable actions for improvement.
