NHS Highland Endowment Research Grants
NHS Highland is committed to giving support and encouragement to all staff wishing to undertake research sponsored by Endowments. These grants (up to £5000) are generally awarded to small projects. Endowment grant applications are assessed by the NHS Highland R&D Committee who will require external peer review by two reviewers prior to making a decision on funding. Preference is given to projects that are likely to provide benefit to the Highland population or may lead on to larger, externally funded projects. These funds are therefore particularly suitable for small pilot studies.
Application forms for Endowment Grants can be obtained from the R&D Office. There is no closing date for applications.
External Research Funding
There are many external sources for research funding. Details of potential funders can be found at the Chief Scientist Office website: http://www.sehd.scot.nhs.uk/cso/
