Hastie Career Advancement Fund

The Hastie Career Advancement Fund was initiated in 2018 to support the legacy of Professor Nick Hastie in supporting, training and advancing the careers of hundreds of research scientists during his time as Director of the Institute of Genetics and Molecular Medicine, and the MRC Human Genetics Unit.

Awards from The Hastie Career Advancement Fund will provide support to talented early-career scientists at Institute of Genetics and Cancer towards taking the next step in their career. Funds will allow scientific exchange or the generation of initial data to support bids for career development awards in high-priority areas for Institute of Genetics and Cancer, for example fundamental questions of cell function, eye disease, kidney disease, cancer, developmental disorders and population health. Awards will be made annually via a competitive process judged by a panel of Institute researchers.

This fund has been initiated by Nick’s colleagues, former trainees and friends, and we welcome donations to sustain the fund.
