The Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) programme invites applications from methodologists to the second highlight notice of a series addressing NIHR strategy to strengthen careers of under-represented disciplines and specialisms.

All applications to this call should be led by a research methodologist.  Specifically, the following disciplines will be considered: medical statistics, health economics, clinical trial design, operational research, modelling, bioinformatics, qualitative research, mixed methods and epidemiology. While there is flexibility on application design and topic area provided it is within RfPB remit,  applications should fall broadly within the following types:

• Methods research applications submitted by a methodologist lead applicant plus wider team (as appropriate)
• Health research, public health research, and social care research applications submitted by a methodologist lead/joint lead.
