Communicating your research

Communicating well is key to getting research funded, done and taken up by others.
 

Our R&D communications team provide support, templates and opportunities for communicating your work with a wide range of audiences, while the university-hospital partnership supports effective publication of your research findings.

 

Publication guidelines

 

Please read the Joint Partnership Policy and Guidance on Pre-clinical and Clinical Research Publications before submitting a research paper to a journal.

​

You must name and acknowledge the NIHR in any research outputs enabled by them, including through the BRC, as outlined on the NIHR website.

​

Please use the following statement within the acknowledgements of publications, or other disseminations of research results, where the research received majority funding from the NIHR:

 

This study/research is funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) Southampton Biomedical Research Centre. The views expressed are those of the author(s) and not necessarily those of the NIHR or the Department of Health and Social Care.

 

Please also acknowledge any other NIHR funding or expertise the research may have received. ​​​​

 

Communication templates

 

You can download correctly branded and formatted NIHR BRC templates, including letterheads, posters and presentation slides, from the Documents and templates page.

We also push news directly and via the university and hospital, working closely with their press teams to develop press and media coverage.

For study recruitment we can provide a range of support including materials, advertisement advice and targeted engagement.
