Apply for this funding opportunity through our online application form
The NIHR Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) programme is inviting stage 1 applications for research proposals that are concerned with the day-to-day practice of health service staff, and that have the potential to have an impact on the health or wellbeing of patients and users of the NHS.
As a researcher-led programme, RfPB does not specify topics for research but instead encourages proposals for projects that address a wide range of health service issues and challenges.
The programme aims to fund high quality quantitative and qualitative research with a clear trajectory to patient benefit. It particularly encourages applications that have a strong element of interaction with patients and the public and that have been conceived in association with a relevant group of service users.
Please see the Application Support tab for further information on how to apply.
The submission deadline for applications is 1pm on 06 November 2024

Highlight notice in Research in Mental Health Nursing
RfPB invites proposals for research that improves the evidence base surrounding mental health nursing and the mental health workforce. Following a report by NHS England, the Mental Health Nursing Demand Signalling exercise has identified three themed areas across the topic of mental health nursing which demand further research:
- Health equity, prevention and health promotion
- Person centred practice
- Workforce, people and culture
These themes have each generated numerous pertinent research questions, which are further detailed in the call specification linked below. This call offers flexibility on the part of researchers to use an array of methodologies in order to create high-quality research proposals which address one or more of these research priorities. This highlight notice will apply for this competition only.
For further details, please see Call for research in Mental Health Nursing.
