Priorities to Projects: Palliative Research Incubator Workshop

This event is part of the ongoing work of the NIHR-supported Palliative and End of Life Care (PEoLC) Research Incubator, following its successful national launch in September 2025. It is designed to support early and mid-career researchers—both clinical and non-clinical—who are building a career in PEoLC research.

The workshop is ideal for those exploring or preparing applications for pre-doctoral, doctoral, or postdoctoral fellowships.

The focus of the day is on turning national research priorities into fundable, collaborative projects that are grounded in the lived experiences of patients and families.
