Eastern Arc Funder Webinar: Demystifying the NIHR

The National Institute for Health Research was established in 2006 and has an annual budget of more than £1bn. It funds health and social care, and has been seen as the &#x27;research arm of the NHS&#x27;.However, many who do research that is relevant to the funder are detered from applying because its structure can seem confusing, its priorities obscure, and its processes unclear.This webinar is intended to help with this. It will be a clear, straightforward overview of how the funder is structured, its 10 basic schemes, and how applications are assessed, together with insights into how you can frame your application for the best chance of success, and where you can find out more. We will leave plenty of time for questions, clarifications and discussion following the presentations.Leading the webinar will be colleagues from across Eastern Arc.Prof Andrew Bateman is based at Essex and is Director of the NIHR Research Design Service for the East of England as well as Head of Division of Interdisciplinary Research and Practice in the School of Health and Social Care.Prof Garry Barton is a Professor of Health Economics at UEA, and Deputy Director, and site lead for the NIHR RDS EoE.
