15 doctoral studentships available focusing on dementia-related practice

We are pleased to be launching fifteen full-time PhD studentships focusing on dementia-related research in England with support from the National Institute for Health and Care Research.

The NIHR Research Schools for Primary Care (SPCR), Public Health (SPHR) and Social Care (SSCR) (“three Schools”) have joined together in a unique collaboration between leading academic centres in England to collaborate on a programme of work funded through the NIHR on dementia.

The Three Schools’ Dementia Research Programme aims to develop the evidence base for dementia-related practice in England by commissioning and conducting high-quality research. The Programme builds on research within each School and will carry out research to address key gaps in the evidence base, working collaboratively across primary care, public health and social care. The fifteen studentships are offered through this Dementia Programme.

These studentships will start in October 2024. Doctoral students will be required to conduct research relevant to the topics specified. Deadline dates for each opportunity does differ.
