Tickets for the Wellcome Trust population health funding event at UCL are now available.
This event will highlight the funding opportunities available at Wellcome Trust for population health research.
In addition to an update on the direction of travel for population health at Wellcome, and an overview of all their relevant schemes, we are including a couple of presentations from researchers with Wellcome Trust funding to outline their pathway to success (including failures), tips on the process, and lessons learnt.
Come along to find out about the many funding schemes and opportunities from the Wellcome Trust, ask questions about the application process, meet the experts, and hear from current applicants and grant holders.

What are the one-to-one sessions?
