Clinical Fellows: for medical specialists who want to build a bridge between research and practice
Bridge between research and practice
A Clinical Fellowship is an individual grant for medical specialists who want to build a bridge between research and practice within their own discipline.
Need for applied research
A need has been expressed for a specific type of grant for medical specialists who want to do more (applied) research, and that provides opportunities for a broader range of disciplines. Several disciplines are specifically mentioned: psychiatry, rare diseases, translational research, paediatrics, chronic diseases and social medicine
Investment in bridge builders
With the programme Clinical Fellows, ZonMw wants to connect the worlds of clinical and scientific research with each other and strengthen them. Patient care will be improved by investing in bridge builders. In this programme, medical specialists will be given the opportunity to build up or strengthen this bridging function.
