The Applied Programme Grants (APRO) aim to support a strategic programme of applied research in health and social care that will have an impact on the health and social care of individuals, population health and the health system in Ireland and beyond.
The overarching aim is to develop talented and skilled health and social care researchers during the postdoctoral stage of their research career, particularly emphasising an ability to apply research evidence to improve healthcare and health policy and reduce the gap between research findings and clinical practice and/or health policy.
Internship awards for postdoctoral fellows: First-hand experience of working in a State agency alongside experienced professionals.
Short research projects for undergraduate students in a health or social care-related discipline
The award will recognise a HRB-funded researcher who has led their research to impact/s on policy, practice, services or the health and social care system.
The overarching aim of the CSF scheme is to provide opportunities for talented health and social care practitioners involved in the delivery of patient or social care, who have a PhD (or PhD equivalency) and wish to pursue a combined clinical and research career.
ERAPerMed have launched the fifth Joint Transnational Call for international high-quality research projects to foster research on prevention in Personalised Medicine (PM).
International collaboration on Rare Disease Research with expected impact to use the results in future for benefit of patients.
The Conference and Events Sponsorship Scheme aims to create an opportunity to host health research related events, workshops, or conferences in Ireland.
Joint Transnational Call “Nutrition-responsiveness of the immune system: interplay between infectious diseases and diet-related metabolic diseases and the potential for food-based solutions (NUTRIMMUNE)”.
The aim of this scheme is to provide HRB funded researchers with an opportunity to seek supplementary funding for knowledge translation activities not covered in the original award that will maximise the potential impact of the research findings on policy or practice or communicate research and research findings to the general public.
Research and/or professional development (between three and six months) in the United States of America (USA).
The objective of this call is to support efficient, innovative and high-quality natural history studies on rare diseases, which will facilitate understanding of the disease’s or group of disorders’ progression throughout the lifespan of a patient. The goal of these studies is to collect and analyze comprehensive patient data to define targets for future therapies, taking into consideration innovation, safety, and efficacy, and ultimately benefitting patients in the future.
The aim of the call is to establish a number of ambitious, innovative, multi-disciplinary and multi-national collaborative research projects that seek to improve the understanding of the complex and multifactorial pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases by applying multi-OMICs and Big data approaches in order to generate useful information for the diagnosis, treatment, prognosis, and drug discovery of neurodegenerative diseases.
The aim of the call is to facilitate multinational, collaborative research projects that will address critical translational questions to improve our knowledge concerning neurobiological mechanisms involved in resilience or vulnerability to environmental challenges in mental health.
This call aims to fund research projects developing novel or improving existing strategies, tools, technologies and methods for diagnosis and/or One Health antimicrobial resistance (AMR) surveillance. The results of the funded projects should contribute to improved understanding, monitoring, detection and mitigation of infection and AMR, or optimisation of AMU where efforts to curb AMR will have a global impact on human, animal and plant health and food safety and security.
Supporting new independent investigators who can facilitate actionable knowledge in health research
Supporting health and care practitioners currently at mid-stage of their research career transitioning to research independence.
Projects in (i) Patient-oriented research (POR), (ii) Population health research (PHR), and (iii) Health services research (HSR).
The overarching aim of the Definitive Interventions and Feasibility Awards (DIFA) is to deliver tangible benefits to patients, peoples’ health and health services through the support of studies evaluating a full scale, definitive intervention of any appropriate design to provide high-quality evidence on the efficacy, effectiveness, cost and broad impact of the intervention. To achieve a pipeline of such studies, both definitive interventions and feasibility studies conducted in preparation for future definitive intervention, are supported. The DIFA scheme also supports the conduct of trial methodology research (SWATs) within the context of proposed interventions.
The aim of this call is to develop novel strategies and targeted approaches to identify, understand, and modify determinants and mechanisms of diet-related behaviour and physical activity as well as sedentary behaviour, which have the potential to break through the cycles maintaining unhealthy behaviours and lifestyles and to reduce health inequities. The expected results have the potential to improve the health and well-being of socio-economically disadvantaged groups through targeted approaches for a long-term behaviour change in the areas of healthy diet and physical activity.
Supporting excellent doctoral training programmes for future health researchers in the conduct of patient-focused research.
Supporting established health investigators in academic setting transitioning to leadership in health research.
The overall goal of the new funding model for HRBs investment in cancer trials in Ireland is to support an appropriate infrastructure; enabling Irish patients to access a diverse portfolio of high-quality, safe and compliant cancer clinical trials in Ireland.
HRCI/HRB Joint Funding Scheme aims to fund researchers and research teams to conduct internationally competitive and innovative research in areas of strategic relevance to each individual charity.
