Do you want to tell the world about your research?  Are you passionate about communicating your work to a wider audience?  The Arts and Humanities Research Council and BBC Radio 3 are looking for the next generation of emerging academics who can excite others about the benefits of research.

New Generation Thinkers is a pioneering programme designed to find a new generation of academics who can bring the best of university research and ideas to a wide audience.  Through the use of BBC broadcasting, the scheme aims to encourage early years researchers to develop the skills needed to communicate their research to non-expert audiences.

Applicants do not need to be AHRC funded and can be working in a wide variety of areas, including archaeology, geography, history, journalism, law or media and communications.  For more information, see the New Generation Thinkers website.

You can apply here.  Applications close on 15th December 2014.
