The Northern Network for Medical Humanities Research (NNMHR) is pleased to announce that the 2023 round of the New Networks in Critical Medical Humanities Funding Scheme is now open and invites applications for grants of up to £2500 to support networking activities.
In 2022 The Northern Network for Medical Humanities Research (NNMHR) launched the first round of the New Networks in Critical Medical Humanities Funding Scheme. Four networks were awarded funds of up to £2500 each to support events, activities and the development of resources.
For the 2023 round, the NNMHR invites applications for grants of up to £2500 to support networking activities for up to two years (2023-2025). All awarded funds must be claimed and spent by the end of August 2025.
The NNMHR has a strong national and international reputation as an interdisciplinary hub for researchers, practitioners and artists working in the critical medical humanities. Shifting the focus from small research projects and individual fellowships, the New Networks in Critical Medical Humanities Funding Scheme enables the NNMHR to identify and support emerging networks of researchers committed to the innovative development, complication and expansion of the field. These networks will involve early career researchers in leading or coordinating roles, and will help catalyse new ideas, methodologies, collaborations and areas of further investigation within the critical medical humanities, nationally and internationally. The New Networks in Critical Medical Humanities Funding Scheme is made possible by a Discretionary Award from Wellcome Trust [UNS128916].
Full details of the award scheme and application process can be found on our website.
Prospective applicants for the 2023 round may also be interested in the online event “What Makes a Good Research Network?” on 26th April 2023, 14.00 to 15.30. Booking via Eventbrite.
