About Research Design Service North East and North Cumbria
Research Design Service North East and North Cumbria (RDS NENC) is one of 10 RDS Regions in England. It offers research design and methodological advice to researchers from across the region who are developing applications for national peer-reviewed funding in applied health and social care research. We offer free, confidential, specialist advice on all aspects of an application including:
- study design
- research methodology and methods (qualitative and quantitative)
- identifying suitable sources of funding
- involving patients and public in research
- identifying potential collaborators.
If the RDS helped you develop successful funding applications, they can also provide post-funding advice should you need it. This may relate to study set-up, delivery or analysis, but will be advisory only, including signposting to other groups. The RDS cannot provide support to fill gaps in the expertise of research teams.
Stage
To make the most of the RDS support, get in touch well in advance of application deadlines. RDS NENC supports researchers at stages D1-D3 and T1-T3 along the translational research pathway.
