Work with us
Manchester BRC’s vision is to drive health improvements and lasting change for all through creative, inclusive and proactive research that identifies and bridges gaps between new discoveries and individualised care.
We have recently been awarded more than £60 million for 2022-2027 to translate our scientific discoveries into new treatments, diagnostic tests, and medical technologies to improve patients’ lives in Greater Manchester, Lancashire, and South Cumbria.
The expansion of our research themes and our geographical reach will ensure that communities across our region’s urban, rural and coastal settings will now be able to participate in cutting-edge research, and requires us to build our workforce to develop and deliver research across our region and to involve many more of our citizens and local patients in our research planning.
