Primary Care Research Collaborative
NHS Sheffield CCG, The University of Sheffield Academic Unit of Primary Medical Care (AUPMC), the NIHR Clinical Research Network Y&H, and Primary Care Sheffield have come together to support the development and delivery of Primary Care research in the city. The Sheffield Primary Care Research Collaboration will work together, to deliver a city-wide primary care research strategy, and engage with GP practices, to support research delivery, promote and communicate opportunities for research within primary care. Most communication will be done via this website but we also communicate directly with practices and stakeholders directly via email. We are constantly horizon scanning for potential new research opportunities and if you’d like to know more and get involved in research please get in touch via pcs.research@nhs.net.
The CCG’s 2021 RCF fund supported the ‘Enabling research participation in under-served populations in Sheffield’ project whose report can be found here.
Research Governance Support
NHS Sheffield CCG have commissioned research governance support, for primary care, through the Research Development Unit in Sheffield Health and Social Care NHSFT . Contact rdu@shsc.nhs.uk for support with research regulatory approvals – including research ethics and HRA approvals.
