Training Hub

Clinical Academic Pathway

Clinical academics are health professionals who engage in research and clinical practice at the same time. Clinical academics focus on building a research-led care environment to improve the effectiveness, quality and safety of healthcare. The Oxford BRC provides a variety of ways in which you can train to be a researcher while continuing in your clinical role, including financial support, mentoring and training.

Internships are short awards of 3 to 6 months for people with little or no research experience. The award covers your salary costs for the days away from clinical practice. Learn more.

Infographic Preparatory Research Fellowships

Preparatory Research Fellowships

Preparatory Research Fellowships are pre-doctoral awards and pay your salary costs for six months full-time or up to one year part-time to provide you with protected time to do research and prepare an application for a doctorate. Learn more
