Senior Research Leader- Nursing and Midwifery Programme
Date: 26 April 2023
Building on the success of the 70@70 programme, NIHR’s new Senior Research Leader: Nursing & Midwifery Programme launched in April.
The programme aims to empower nurse and midwife leaders to increase research capacity and capability at a local, regional and national level. The cohort of Senior Research Leaders (SRLs) will use their experience to drive transformation within the NIHR and the broader healthcare landscape.
The first cohort of the programme will run from April 2023 until March 2026.
The 35 Senior Research leaders were selected from a range of healthcare settings, specialism and roles across the country with
- 33% of the new cohort coming from a community or healthcare settings
- A quarter of cohort members are midwives or are dual-trained.
The SRL programme will recruit nurses and midwives on an annual basis, through a competitive application process, with nurses and midwives remaining on the programme for three years. Information about applications for the second cohort of SRL’s will be available later in 2023.
