Find Out More About Academic Opportunities for Clinical Trainees

Are you interested in becoming involved in research or curious how research can enhance your ePortfolio?

Join us at a free, hybrid event to find out more.

Format: This is a hybrid event (hosted online via Teams, in-person attendance is strongly encouraged). Whilst this is a hybrid event, in-person attendance is strongly encouraged to take advantage of meeting with new colleagues and networking over lunch from 12:30 – 13:30.

‘Research is everybody’s business: academic opportunities for clinical trainees’ is an event aimed at medical, surgical and dental trainees in the Health Education England North East (HEENE) region.

It will showcase the wide range of opportunities available for trainees to get involved in research, with an emphasis on non-traditional routes into clinical academic careers and supporting clinical trainees to become research active in their NHS roles.

This event will be hosted by the NIHR Newcastle Biomedical Research Centre and will include a series of lightning talks and panel discussions with clinical trainees who became researchers.

We are delighted to welcome contributions from Dr Richard Bellamy, Director of Speciality Training, North East and Cumbria, Professor David Jones OBE, Director of NHIP Academy, and Professor Avan Aihie Sayer, Director of the NIHR Newcastle BRC, who will share their insights into academic medical careers and building research activity into medical training.

Attendance is free but registration is essential.
