Grant Application Support

Are you interested in leading or being part of a palliative care research grant funding application?

This may include training webinars, protocol development activities, enabling networks, and supportive activities such as facilitating critical reads. Please check back for details, or contact Catherine Walshe or Lesley Dunleavy (contact details in 'meet the partnership)  if you have an idea that you want to discuss.
