About Us

The R&D Team

The Research and Development team is based in the Quadram Institute Building. We track and manage all studies by:

  • Guiding researchers through funding and application processes
  • Completing legal agreements/contracts
  • Setting up studies and monitoring progress
  • Managing study finances
  • Reviewing serious adverse events, non-compliances and protocol deviations
  • Undertaking audits
  • Reporting to the regulatory bodies
  • Archiving studies post completion.

We also develop and maintain the joint NNUH/UEA Standard Operating Procedures, compile the annual research report and provide training. 

Patient and public involvement is supported by a small but growing team of Public Research Champions who volunteer their time to raise awareness and encourage others to participate.

Please contact the team as early as possible if you are proposing to carry out research at NNUH.
