Research Posts Award Scheme 2024
In support to Mental Health Mission (MHM) workstreams and demonstrator sites, the MHM Capacity Development workstream are launching Research Posts Award Scheme 2024. We welcome applications for funding to support posts, which will enable the delivery of the aims of your workstream/site.
We encourage applications for clinical/non-clinical academic posts, including:
- Academic Clinical Fellowships/ Academic Clinical Lectureships, Foundation Year 3 research posts;
- Research delivery roles;
- Research Fellows for 1-3 years in duration;
- Research PAs for investigators including medical or non-medical clinicians.
More information about these posts, eligibility and application guidance can be found in the supporting document MHM Capacity Development Clinical Academic Posts V1.0 23-01-2024.pdf. The posts listed in this document are indicative but not exhaustive. If there are other roles that you think are needed in order for your workstream or demonstrator site to meet the MHM aims, please do apply.
