We will award three travel/research prizes to PhD/MD students studying in the East Midlands. PhD/MD students should be either directly funded by the ARC or their supervisor should have a link to the ARC, either as one of our study leads or as a member of the ARC East Midlands Faculty. Faculty application details, including the application process (free of charge) can be found here: www.arc-em.nihr.ac.uk/about/arc-faculty

Successful applicants will win up to £500 to cover the cost of attendance at a conference (a paper or poster must be being presented), for research data collection costs, to undertake specialist training not offered by their university or for dissemination costs.
