Our Research and Innovation Department is recognised nationally and internationally as a leading centre for clinical trials a ... nd other studies, with more than 500 projects carried out here each year. Research links closely with clinical care and teaching to ensure patients and their wellbeing are at the heart of everything we do. Our research includes experimental medicine, which looks at the causes of disease, how certain treatments work and whether they are safe, as well as large scale clinical trials which test the effectiveness of new drugs and treatments. It means patients have access to some of the most cutting edge treatments and thousands of them volunteer to take part in our studies each year. We work closely with the Universities of Manchester, Manchester Metropolitan and Salford as well as other NHS organisations and also collaborate nationally and internationally with other experts in our fields. read more
