Abstract
This is a qualitative multi-methods study integrating document analyses and interviews. Following Ethics approval from the Faculty of Medicine Ethics committee, a sample of (n=138) documents linked to applications was selected for content analysis. Eight interviews with programme directors, reviewers and applicants, published studies, guidelines, impact literacy blogs, and checklists informed the analytical framework and interpretation of results.
Aim

Intended Impact of the Study

The impact goal has been met as findings from this project have been used to inform other NIHR initiatives (e.g., SAF revisions).
