Join this free, practical, interactive webinar to learn how to meet NIHR and HRA research inclusion requirements in grant applications.

We’ll cover who to include, how to recruit and retain diverse participants, how to budget for inclusion, and how to monitor and report progress. The session is also relevant to applicants seeking funding beyond NIHR and future grant writers and funders beyond NIHR, such as the MHRA.

What to expect:

  • Learn from experts who have developed guidance for the NIHR
  • Plenty of time to ask questions and get practical guidance

Speakers:

  • Professor Shaun Treweek: Shaun is a leading expert in pragmatic trial design, recruitment and retention, and inclusive research methods. He co-developed the NIHR INCLUDE Ethnicity Framework
  • Associate Professor Shoba Dawson: Shoba is an expert in inclusive research methods, with a focus on improving recruitment and retention of ethnic minority groups in trials. She leads the Trial Forge Inclusive Research Centre and has developed the Trial Forge 3 guidance on how to recruit and retain people from ethnic minority groups in clinical trials.

Who is this for:

  • Healthcare researchers wanting to write more inclusive grant applications.
