Some of you might be thinking of applying for NIHR funding. The following seminars might be useful.
At the lecture by the Director of the NIHR earlier this week it was pointed out that York is not that successful in obtaining particular types of NIHR funding and it was also pointed out that one reason was because patients were not involved as much as the NIHR would like. So the workshop on the RFPB programme might be particularly useful. -----------------------------------------
The NIHR Research Design Service for Yorkshire and the Humber offers a programme of learning events which are FREE to NHS researchers, and others working in partnership with the NHS within the Yorkshire and Humber region, who are developing an application to a suitable funding body, particularly Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) and all other NIHR research programmes.
