Resources

The regulatory and governance environment for clinical research in general, and clinical trials in particular, is complex. As a researcher, you need to understand and comply with a wide range of legal requirements, most importantly the EU Clinical Trials Directive as translated into UK law, but also the NHS Research Governance Framework, the Data Protection Act and associated confidentiality requirements.

The EME programme provides FAQs and information on NHS Costs, Patient and Public involvement and research guidance to aid you when considering your initial application and when you are working on your funded project(s). We would welcome suggestions of other key resources that you have found useful and would recommend.
