Achievements and Research Impact
Since attending the Bridging Scheme, Anna has been awarded an NIHR Doctoral Clinical and Practitioner Academic Fellowship (NIHR303569), marking a significant milestone in her clinical academic career.
Reflections on the NHS R&D NW Programme
Anna valued the in-person sessions of the Bridging Scheme, finding them more engaging than online alternatives. She appreciated talks from previous doctoral fellowship holders and highlighted the importance of the supportive peer network formed, which has continued beyond the programme. She suggested that traditional coaching on career planning before, during, and after the PhD could be a beneficial addition.
Professional Goals
Anna aspires to complete her NIHR Doctoral Fellowship and secure a split research and clinical role within the NHS. She aims to continue translational research to advance radiotherapy patient care.
Congratulations to Anna Clark for achieving her NIHR Doctoral Clinical and Practitioner Academic Fellowship!
