About this Event

Welcome!

The Research and Innovation team at Leicester’s Hospitals is pleased to invite you to a researcher day on 25 February 2020. The day is open to anyone who is involved in research on one of our hospital sites (including clinical researchers funded by universities, other public bodies or charitable organisations).

The day will include talks, panel Q&As and workshops on a range of subjects – including using quality improvement tools to align your research with the Trust's 'Becoming the best' strategy, tips and tricks for aspiring researchers, and lots of case studies with impact.

About Leicester's Research

Leicester's Hospitals is a world leader in many specialty areas, including cardiovascular, respiratory, diabetes and renal medicine, with many prominent researchers working in our NHS Trust.

We are home to several National Institute for Health Research bodies: the NIHR Leicester Biomedical Research Centre and NIHR Leicester Clinical Research Facility, the Clinical Research Network East Midlands, and Applied Research Collaboration (ARC) East Midlands. We also have Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre (ECMC) status - our HOPE clinical trials facility is vital in the delivery of its research. We work closely with our fellow NHS, academic, commercial and charity partners to deliver high quality research from bench to bedside - and beyond.

We hope to see you there!
