One of the nationally recognised challenges in progressing the NMAHP research agenda is access to funded Post Graduate research training and associated backfill. This is key in enabling NMAHPs the flexibility and autonomy to develop and sustain the required research skills and confidence to lead research alongside their clinical practice.
The Researcher Development Institute (RDI) offers an innovative avenue to drive forward valuable research which benefits our patients, staff and departments, and the population beyond.
These fellowships are being supported through a mix of RDI grant funding and dedicated CPD funds, and we are delighted to have enabled more than one fellowship at doctoral level in this round.
Take a look at our RDI fellows and find out more about the work they’re doing to improve our services and patient care.
With thanks to Newcastle Hospitals Charity who contributed over £3 million to the RDI and continue to support this work.
