Supporting Health and Social Care Research
A range of resources and best practice success stories have been pulled together to make promoting research and its benefits to patient care more accessible to everyone.
The NIHR website now hosts a number of pages and resources, such as how the NIHR can help academic researchers to conduct and deliver research, and success stories from amongst the research community – access the following link to find out more.
Remember that support is on offer at BU if you are thinking of introducing your research ideas into the NHS – email the Research Ethics mailbox, and take a look at the Clinical Governance blog.
