Being a research active clinician

Published: March 16, 2020, 7 a.m.

This week our panel of NHS clinicians are in the studio to discuss their stories of becoming 'research active'. With advise for others and details on how they are now working to support and encourage others on the front line of NHS care. As the NIHR in the UK, and research bodies in other countries work to encourage more clinical staff to become research active. This podcast provides information for clinicians from all professions and backgrounds, hoping to inspire the next generation of Principle Investigators. Piers Kotting is back in the hot seat with Dr Sylvie Halsey and Dr Zoe Clough from the Wessex Deanery and Dr Leonidas Chouliaras from the University of Cambridge and Cambridgeshire & Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust.
