BESS Research Grants for Shoulder and Elbow Clinical Research

About this program

The BESS Research Committee (British Elbow and Shoulder Society) offers annual Research Grants of up to £15,000 to set up and commence clinical research projects focused on shoulder and elbow disorders. Funding is intended to stimulate clinical research and proposals intended for inclusion on the NIHR portfolio are eligible, enabling access to research network support to supplement BESS funding for project completion. Applicants must propose clinical research into shoulder and elbow conditions; no specific applicant categories or fixed deadlines are indicated, and submissions should follow the BESS application guidance and eligibility criteria.
