We are seeking to fund research studies which address any of the James Lind Alliance (JLA) Priority Setting Partnerships' (PSPs) research priorities.
The JLA Priority Setting Partnerships facilitate patients, carers and clinicians to work collaboratively to identify research priorities in particular areas of health and care. Their aim is to ensure that health research funders are aware of the issues that are important to the people who need to use the research in their daily lives. In order to enable research into these identified priorities, we are offering research funding through four of our research programmes. This funding will be a 'rolling call', in which funding rounds will re-open shortly after the previous round closes. This is to enable ongoing research funding for PSPs, so an application can be made at any time.
For more information, please read the specification document.
Participating programmes
The research programmes participating in this funding opportunity are:
- Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation (EME)

- Public Health Research (PHR)
These programmes fund research across the National Health Service (NHS), public health, and social care, to meet the needs of those who plan, provide and receive care and services. The programmes recognise the importance of the research priorities identified by the James Lind Alliance Priority Setting Partnerships and are interested in receiving high-quality applications which address them.
Proposals must be within the remit of one of the participating research programmes, and the primary outcome measure must be health-related. To find out more about the remit of each programme, please visit the relevant programme page.
