Longitudinal Study of Debt Advice - MaPS published the results from a two-year quantitative pilot longitudinal study (PLS) of debt advice in October 2022. The pilot has demonstrated solid evidence that doing a large-scale longitudinal study successfully is feasible and likely to produce valuable insight. <br/><br/>Given the encouraging results, MaPS wants to undertake a two-phase quantitative longitudinal study to measure the impact of debt advice on client outcomes. The design includes a randomised encouragement component by using a stratified random process to create a counterfactual group, where a treatment group is encouraged to seek debt advice, and a control group is not.<br/><br/>There are two main changes from the PLS. 1) The criteria used by MaPS to define people in need of debt advice have changed. From previous surveys, we estimate that the old and new definitions of people in need of advice will provide a similar eligibility rate but that will be tested in the first phase of the study. 2) We have a new design and structure to be used for the randomise encouragement component. Also, to be tested and improved in the development phase.

Plaque scheme research - round table events - We are looking for an experienced research or community organisation to organise and facilitate a series of round table discussions to take place in July 2024. These round tables aim to bring together representatives from civic societies and other community heritage organisations to explore different experiences of running plaque schemes in their local areas. The outcomes of these discussions will inform a 'how to' guide on running plaque schemes, which will be published at a later date. Outcomes will also be used by Historic England to inform the delivery of the government-backed blue plaque scheme.

Joint PhD Studentship Between APHA and Imperial College Of Science, Technology & Medicine for "Characterising impact of the nutritional landscape on mosquito immunity, behaviour & disease transmission" - This joint PhD project, with a One Health focus, looks to fill critical gaps in our knowledge of how the nutritional landscape impacts mosquito immunity, behaviour, and by extension, disease transmission risk. The aim of this research is to conduct controlled studies to determine the direct effect of phytochemicals on pathogens in vitro and in vivo, the effect of nectar feeding on mosquito immunity, vector competence and vectorial capacity.

Social Model of Disability Research - The Welsh Government will award a 19-month research contract for the development and cognitive testing of a set of demographic survey questions and guidance that are consistent with the Social Model of Disability. The aim of the contract is to develop a suite of research questions and response options that reflect the Social Model of Disability and enable a standardised, consistent approach. Concurrently, guidance must be developed which outlines the type of question to use and when. For example, what questions could or should be asked, for what purpose, and in which survey? Research into questions for children and young people as well as adults, would be beneficial and relevant to the Student Health and Well Being surveys, for example, which Welsh Government fund every two years. Research into other models of disability would also need to be undertaken to assess whether there is a need to create a question set based on the Biopsychosocial Model of Disability, for example, in addition to a suite of questions based on the Social Model of Disability.
