HSC Trust Research Governance Permission – Submission of Application

This publication is the 15th issue of R&D Today – the biannual newsletter of the Health and Social Care Research and Development Division (HC R&D). It profiles research in HSC Trusts, research governance permissions processes and noticeable achievements in research.

The Academy's review, 'A new pathway for the regulation and governance of health research' was published in January 2011. The report was prepared by a working group, chaired by Professor Sir Michael Rawlins FMedSci, convened in response to an invitation from Government to review the regulation and governance of UK health research involving human participants, their tissue or their data.

This publication, the 13th issue of R&D Today - the biannual newsletter of the Health and Social Care Research and Development Division (HC R&D) - profiles the work supported by Northern Ireland’s Health and Social Care R&D fund. This issue reflects the position of HSC R&D as a division of the regional Public Health Agency.
