Campbell's Q&A

What do you like about being a part of the NIHR School for Public Health Research?
Receiving support from the NIHR SPHR during my PhD allows me to interact with researchers across different member organisations at annual network meetings. It has been great to visit Newcastle and Leeds and I have enjoyed the opportunity to speak with and learn from such a diverse cohort of NIHR SPHR members. Annual meetings also provide novel training opportunities (such as how to manage international collaborations) which have had a direct positive impact on my career.
