The FPH Academic Public Health SIG have been funded by the NIHR Academy to hold an in-person event at the Wellcome Collection in London for public health professionals who currently hold, or have recently held, any post on the NIHR Academy pathway.
The aim of the day is to bring together emerging leaders in UK public health research to identify and explore challenges they are facing as they try to build their academic public health careers now and also looking to the future. The agenda for the day is available to view here.
If you are an FPH member and NIHR Academy member and would like to attend, please contact events@fph.org.uk for a link to the registration form.
Early registration is encouraged as there is limited capacity of approximately 40 places. Registration will close on 29 May at 5pm, or once capacity has been reached.
