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.
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.
Interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellowships on the topic of public health crisis.
The Conference and Events Sponsorship Scheme aims to create an opportunity to host health research related events, workshops, or conferences in Ireland.
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.
The overall aim of the RDCat call is to optimise readiness for the planned Rare Diseases Partnership and ensure that research and innovation can deliver better outcomes for rare disease patients in Ireland.
The HRB is participating in the JPIAMR Joint Transnational Call 2024 to support Irish researchers to engage in transnational collaborative research in the field of antimicrobial resistance under the call entitled “Interventions Moving forward to Promote ACTion to counteract the emergence and spread of bacterial and fungal resistance and to improve treatments ”.
