Eniola cannot apply to this specific programme — see red flags below. Her strongest adjacent path is the **general IBRO Exchange Fellowships** (ibro.org/exchange-fellowships/), which is the programme the FENS/IBRO-PERC page explicitly redirects Africa-based applicants to ('Applicants resident in the Africa, Asia or Latin America region should apply via the general IBRO Exchange Fellowships program'). For that application, Eniola's most powerful angle is her proven computational CCT framework (pre-registered, published, validated) paired with a visit to a Berridge (Michigan) or Gershman (Harvard) lab — both have expressed interest in her work via collaboration/endorsement — to acquire in-vivo validation skills (conditioned place preference, fibre photometry, or human fMRI paradigms) that would provide the wet-lab Tier 2 validation her model currently lacks and that are unavailable to an independent researcher in Lagos. The 'skill not available at home institution' criterion maps perfectly to her situation as an independent researcher with no institutional lab access.
