University of Cambridge Funding Roadshow 22/11/2006

On Wednesday I attended a funding roadshow at the University of Cambridge, this was attended by all the major funders such as the Research Councils, Cancer Research UK, Wellcome Trust and ourselves. It was a chance to provide information on funding opportunities to postgraduate researchers and academics at the University. The day proved to be very lucrative in a number of ways, it gained access to an area where RDInfo is less known, enabled ourselves to form a new partnership with the Research Services Division as well as helping make contact with the major funders also displaying there. I felt the day was really beneficial and can only help to promote our services further in the Cambridge area.

Articles

We have recently offered via our profiling service to registered users the opportunity for RDInfo to provide an article to be published in their newsletters. Derbyshire Mental Health Services Trust have taken ourselves up on the offer. So i will keep the blog posted as to when this will be published and where we can find it.

CPHVA Proves a Huge Success

Following the CPHVA (Community Practitioners' and Health Visitors' Association) Conference on the 18th-20th October 2006 RDFunding has seen an increase of new registrants to the profiling service. The conference was a huge success with a lot of interest shown in our services.
