Research
There are a variety of grants and awards that, as a member of the AAGBI, you can apply for. AAGBI research funding (Departmental Project Grants, Research Fellowships and small research grants) 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.
Research and Grants Committee
The Research and Grants Committee coordinates those grants from the AAGBI that are not covered by the NIAA.
Innovation in anaesthesia is a new service for members.IRC funding and travel grants
The International Relations Committee (IRC) considers applications from members who are seeking funding for projects usually, but not exclusively, in the developing world.
Policy on the distribution of surveys to AAGBI members
The AAGBI receives many requests to forward surveys to its members. The AAGBI will rarely distribute external surveys directly to its membership, but will consider surveys in relation to their merit and relevance to the practice of anaesthesia and related specialities.
Please send a copy/link to your survey to secretariat@aagbi.org. If approved, a link to the survey will be placed in a fortnightly e-newsletter that is sent to all members. Research Ethics Committee submissions must not specify distribution via the AAGBI without the agreement of the AAGBI. Collection and analysis of data is the responsibility of the survey’s author(s).
SAS doctors can apply for the SAS Audit and Research Prize and the SAS Travel Grant. Awards for trainees
Trainee anaesthetists are invited to submit an abstract for oral or poster presentation or enter the Anaesthesia History Prize at the 2012 GAT ASM, in Glasgow on 27-29 June. Closing date 23 April 2012
