Pre-recorded Fellowship Information Event – Spring 2020

These pre-recorded presentations from a range of keynote speakers provide fellowship applicants (doctoral, clinical doctoral, post-doctoral/advanced) with essential information on how to progress their grant applications in the months leading up to submission.

If you are based in the East of England, and would like an online one-to-one meeting with a research adviser from the Research Design Service to discuss your Fellowship application, please complete the RDS East of England client enquiry form or, if you have already met with a RDS adviser about the Fellowship application, please contact them direct. If you work outside of the East of England, please contact your regional Research Design Office to set up a meeting with them.

 

Please complete our evaluation form; your feedback helps us create useful resources and better our practise – RDS Fellowship Event Evaluation Form

• ‘Public involvement masterclass’, for those of you who are seeking in-depth information about Public Involvement in Research. There is not a recorded presentation of these slides.
• ‘Working with the NHS when developing your Fellowship application’, for useful insights into how they can help.
