Postgraduate opportunities in research at NEAS
The North East Ambulance Service NHS Trust (NEAS) is offering a unique opportunity to qualified and enthusiastic paramedics who wish to understand the research process and assist with the delivery of high quality clinical research. Recently, joint funding has been secured to support four dedicated paramedics to undertake a master of clinical research at Newcastle University. These academic posts are a joint initiative between the research and development (R&D) department and the clinical education and development department at the trust. Together, we anticipate that this successful collaboration will strengthen working relationships and maximize our common objectives in the future. This article highlights these novel scholarships which are currently available in the North East region.
