DESCRIPTION:*The PublicHealth@Cambridge research Network (http://www.publi
 chealth.cam.ac.uk) is hosting a regional information workshop for potentia
 l applicants by the NIHR Public Health Research Programme team.*\n\nVisit 
 http://www.publichealth.cam.ac.uk/nihr-public-health-research-programme-in
 formation-workshop-potential-applicants/ for further information and to re
 gister your interest in attending. \n\nThe Public Health Research (PHR) Pr
 ogramme evaluates public health interventions\, providing new knowledge on
  the benefits\, costs\, acceptability and wider impacts of non-NHS interve
 ntions intended to improve the health of the public and reduce inequalitie
 s in health. The scope of the programme is multi-disciplinary and broad\, 
 covering a range of interventions that improve public health and the wider
  determinants of public health.\nThe programme uses a very wide interpreta
 tion of public health. Research funded to date is concerned with the healt
 h impacts of interventions under each of the major local authority service
  areas: education\, adult and children’s social care\, transport\, housi
 ng\, culture\, environment\, planning and democratic services. In addition
 \, all of the prescribed and non-prescribed areas of local government publ
 ic health responsibilities are within the programme’s remit.\n\nThe aim 
 of this workshop is to enable researchers from a wide range of disciplines
  to explore the research funding opportunities available through the PHR p
 rogramme. As well as going through how the programme works (e.g. how resea
 rch is commissioned and funding decisions made) and exploring current fund
 ing opportunities\, it will look at features of a successful application\,
  based on the 60 or so research projects funded to date.\n\n*Programme for
