Careers in Methodology
Raising awareness of methodological careers in health and social care research
About usBe a research methodologist and make a difference!
Improvements in health and care rely on highly skilled researchers with specialist skills in research methodology.
Research methodologies important in this field include information systems, ethics, epidemiology, trial management, statistics, economics, qualitative and mixed methods. We need to expand the numbers of researchers with these skills to raise the quality and scientific rigour of medical and health care research.
The methodology incubator is raising awareness of the importance of methodologists in health and social care research and of the career opportunities in this field.
The methodology incubator is focussed on careers and has strong links with the methodological research community through our work-streams and incubator members.
