Setting up and running a clinical research study
If you are undertaking clinical research in the NHS, you will
need to:
- Have a well-defined study and a protocol and be able to meet
the costs
- Have an institution to sponsor your study (UH Bristol, other
NHS Trust or University)
- Gain all regulatory approvals (e.g. HRA, REC, MHRA etc) via the
IRAS system
- Work with participating sites to arrange confirmation of
capacity and capability
More details are provided in the sections below, but please
contact us early on so we can go through the process with you, and
answer your questions.
