Stroke Association: Postgraduate Fellowship and Clinical-Academic Postgraduate Fellowships

  Monday, 30 Jan 2023 | Funding Deadline

The Stroke Association supports fellows who plan to conduct stroke research into clinical and applied health, including social care research. This includes research that is conducted to answer specific questions relating to day-to-day practice in health services or community settings, and which has the potential to have an impact on the health or well-being of people affected by stroke. A clear trajectory to patient benefit is essential. The Fellow’s proposed project should align with the priorities for stroke research, as set by the 2021 James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnership for Stroke.

• Postgraduate Fellowship (PGF): This award is for candidates who do not have a clinical background. They are aimed at the stroke research leaders of the future. Postgraduate Fellowships are intended to provide the necessary skills and training for the development of an independent career in stroke research, and to allow candidates the opportunity to obtain a postgraduate qualification (MPhil or PhD).
• Clinical-Academic Postgraduate Fellowship (CPGF): The Postgraduate Clinical-Academic Fellowship is aimed at the future clinical-academic leaders in stroke. CPGFs are intended to provide the necessary skills and training for the development of an independent career in stroke research, whilst remaining embedded in clinical practice, and to allow candidates the opportunity to obtain a postgraduate qualification (MPhil or PhD).

Deadline for proposals: 30 January 2023
