This is an essential building block which equips colleagues to go on to the subsequent modules. We learn about the research landscape\, and begin to think about where we fit into it. We cover topics like the difference between research\, audit and service evaluation. We spend time thinking about who we are as clinicians\, as potential researchers\, and what the opportunities might be for us. \nIntended Audience\nThe Newcastle Hospitals’ 4Ps Programme supports the needs of all NMAHPs regardless of where they are on their research journey. \n\n\n\n Add to calendar
