Current Studies in Sheffield

We maintain a list of research studies available for GP practices in Sheffield.  The list is largely, but not exclusively, drawn from the NIHR CRN Y&H portfolio of studies.  The list is continually updated so please keep checking and contact the individual study team or the CRN Study Support Team if you have any queries.  The governance status of each study is colour coded in the ‘status’ column:  red = assurance not yet issued.  amber = assurance review in progress, green = assurance issued, grey = assurance not required.
