The L’Oréal UK and Ireland Fellowships For Women In Science are awards offered by L’Oréal UK & Ireland with the support of the UK National Commission for UNESCO, the Irish National Commission for UNESCO, the Royal Institution of Great Britain, and the UK Resource Centre for Women in SET to promote and celebrate, enhance and encourage, the role and achievements of women pursuing their research careers in the UK or Ireland in the fields of the life or physical sciences.
Four Fellowships will be awarded in 2008 to outstanding women scientists at postdoctoral level to enable and/or facilitate promising scientific research in the life or physical sciences. The Fellowships, each worth £15,000 (equivalent € for candidates in Ireland), are tenable at any UK or Irish university or research institute to support a 12-month period of research.
 The award can be spent in innovative ways to enable women scientists to pursue and continue their research careers – such as buying equipment, paying for childcare or funding travel costs to an overseas conference.
The judging panel for 2008 is chaired by Baroness Greenfield CBE, comprising: Professor Alec Boksenberg CBE FRS FInstP; Dr Raniero De Stasio; Professor Athene Donald FRS; Professor Jane Grimson; Professor Julia King CBE FREng; Mary Mulvihill; Professor Claudio Stern; Annette Williams; Phil Willis MP.
