Abstract

This editorial series explores research in UK cardiology and acts as a practical guide to trainees interested in pursuing early career research. Two earlier entries in the series have explored the rationale for pursuing research and how to identify a project and supervisor. We now take a closer look at navigating the application processes, including funding opportunities and regulatory approvals, to get your research off the ground.

Keywords: academia; ethics; fellowships; funding; out of programme; research; training.
