The MRC are holding a free webinar on Public Partnerships: Inside a successful MRC research application

Public partnerships: Inside a successful MRC research application (online webinar)

Be inspired by how public partnerships were embedded into an MRC research application and hear from a funding panel member about why this is important.

MRC encourages its research community to involve people to help inform and improve research where this can bring benefit to research and society. 

The webinar is likely to be of most interest to researchers, research office professional services staff supporting grant applications and the public involvement and engagement community.
