Call for pan-London research fellowships 2023/2024

Now in its 8th year, the Pan-London Cancer Alliances Research Consortium is pleased to announce a new round of 12-month cancer research fellowships for 2023/24.

The potential areas of focus for the projects are:

  • Earlier diagnosis: with a focus on access into primary care and/or diagnostics, or increasing uptake into cancer screening programmes from a population or place-based approach. Also including aspects of improving detection of recurrent cancer and/or surveillance strategies of the high risk.
  • Cancer inequalities: exploring variations in all aspects of cancer care throughout the patient journey, including screening, treatment and supportive care.
  • Personalised care of people living with and beyond cancer: optimisation of patient management during and after cancer treatment to improve quality of life and clinical outcomes, including multi-morbidity reviews and generation of evidence base for the cancer care reviews.

Please see the guidance below for more details, as well as a project proposal template. Initially, potential supervisors are asked to submit project titles and a short brief describing the project using the proposal template.

The deadline for submissions has been extended to Monday 30 October 2023. Please use the provided template for all submissions. Submissions from organisations within the RM Partners, West London Cancer Alliance geography should be sent to Dr Michelle Chen, RMPartners.research@nhs.net
