Exciting news! 💡We have established a new UK-wide Commercial Research Delivery Centre (CRDC) Network. This will provide national coordination for commercial research delivery. The network will play a key role in building research capacity, streamlining the interface between industry and the UK clinical trials delivery infrastructure. NIHR Life Sciences Director, Dr Maria Koufali, commented: “This means faster access to innovative treatments for patients, greater investment in the NHS and a stronger life sciences sector that boosts the health and wealth of the nation.” Read more here ➡️nihr.ac.uk/news/new-network-…
