Official launch of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Clinical Trials Unit

22 June 2012

The ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Clinical Trials Unit (CTU) is being officially launched on 12 July.

The specialist unit, which was originally set up in 2010 and expanded rapidly in 2012, has a specific remit to design, conduct, analyse and publish the results of clinical trials and other studies.

The CTU will provide ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº School of Life and Medical Sciences and ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Partners with an academic trials unit that will increase trial capacity and quality for researchers at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº and ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Partner institutions.

The ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº CTU is part of ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº's Clinical Trials Collaborative Group along with the Cancer Research UK, ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº Cancer Trials Centre, the MRC Clinical Trials Unit and PRIMENT Clinical Trials Unit. Professor Peter Brocklehurst is the Interim Director.

The official launch of the unit on July 12 will give guests the opportunity to hear about the CTU and to talk to some of the investigators currently collaborating with the unit.
