Dear Colleagues,
The Institute of Health & Society at Newcastle University, invites applications for two Doctoral Fellowships funded by the Health Foundation (www.health.org.uk) as part of their Improvement Science awards. The awards, which will fund research leading to a PhD, are designed to help create a sound theoretical, empirical and experiential knowledge base on improvement science.
Research will be based in one or two of the following five topics: Optimising the delivery of alcohol health improvement interventions in primary care; Understanding the role and impact of patient activation in supporting implementation of shared decision making; Using economic evaluation and preference elicitation methods to inform decisions about how best to reorganise services; Implementation intentions for creating and breaking habits in care provided to patients with type 2 diabetes: a dual process approach; How can theory-based implementation tools optimise the implementation of complex interventions in health care?
You should have a first degree in a relevant subject and preferably a Master's degree, or work experience with evidence of application of relevant research methods. The Fellowships are for 3 years, and it is expected that a PhD will be completed in 3 years.
The closing date is 28th October 2013, for further information please see https://www15.i-grasp.com/fe/tpl_newcastle02.asp?s=4A515F4E5A565B1A&jobid=50892,2346712548&key=71075957&c=585665359899&pagestamp=sexixjwscwnnutbltq .
