Research
There are a variety of grants and awards that, as a member of the AAGBI, you can apply for. AAGBI research funding is now allocated by the Research Council of the National Institute for Academic Anaesthesia (NIAA).
Grants and awards for SAS grade anaesthetists, trainees and undergraduates, plus travel grants and IRC funding, remain independently funded by the AAGBI Foundation.
The AAGBI research strategy focuses on supporting the following key areas:
- Patient safety
- Innovation
- Clinical outcomes
- Education and training
- Related professional issues (e.g. standards and guidelines, working conditions, medicolegal issues, etc).
All AAGBI-supported research must fulfil the requirement for appropriate ethical approval and reporting for human and animal studies (as per Anaesthesia’s Guidance for Authors).
