Charity’s scheme for young clinician-researchers is open while Covid-19 has put research grants on pause
Top tips
- Get in touch with the grants team before you apply—it’s keen to speak to every applicant.
- You should be well supported by your host institution.
- Don’t overstuff your application and always keep in mind just one thing you would like to achieve.
- Avoid weighting your project so that everything that happens in its later stages is contingent on things going to plan earlier on.
