BRC Academy for Training and Education

Our Academy provides outstanding opportunities for researchers from all backgrounds to develop their careers and mature into leading, independent investigators.

We work to generate a cadre of leading researchers at the cutting-edge of biomedical research.

Aims
We have four key strategic aims:

• The development and delivery of a fellowship scheme open to all NHS staff including those holding honorary NHS contracts.
• The implementation and delivery of an academic training and mentoring programme for those appointed to Biomedical Research Centre fellowships.
• The generation of an internal and external profile as a high quality training centre.
• The creation, development and co-ordination of training opportunities across Central Manchester University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, in collaboration with its Research and Innovation Division.

 

“In a very short timeframe the Academy has changed the landscape for our trainees. Our future aspiration must be to make this benchmark the expected norm as we continue to build and maintain a culture for high-quality research.”

Associate Director of Training and Education
