As you will be aware, RDS offers something called the RKEDF, or Research & Knowledge Exchange Development Framework – as part of this there are a number of sessions available surrounding clinical research governance. These sessions can be booked as a 1:2:1 or in bespoke group sessions with Suzy Wignall, BU’s Clinical Governance Advisor.
As always, general chats/specific discussions can also be booked in too – please just email!
The RKEDF sessions available are as follows:
- Clinical Research- documentation and filing
- Good Clinical Practice ‘Lite’
- NHS site set-up or research and overview of approval process
- Overview of NIHR, CRNs and NIHR portfolio
Please get in touch if you are interested in any of these sessions.
For general guidance, documents and further information surrounding processes, take a look at the Clinical Governance website.
