Dermatology researchers are joining scientists from across The University of Manchester at Science Spectacular on Saturday 21 October 2017, for a fun-filled day of challenges, experiments and interactive demonstrations.
The NIHR Manchester BRC, in collaboration with the NIHR Manchester CRF and supported by Oxford Road Corridor and Health Innovation Manchester is investing in the next generation of NHS researchers and want you to be part of it.
This workshop will provide attendees with opportunities to discuss and develop practical strategies for effective PPIE to enhance the design and delivery of their research and to meet the requirements of research funders.
Research recently published in Annals of Rheumatic Diseases has shown genetic markers which differentiate psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. This important finding will help doctors better understand the mechanism of these conditions and with targeting of future treatment.
The BRC has been busy this summer conducting scoping work to inform an ambitious, five year patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) strategy. Delivering exemplary PPIE across Greater Manchester, the strategy will serve both the BRC and the NIHR Manchester CRF.
BRC skin experts Richard Warren and Rachel Watson from the Dermatology Theme have been awarded chairs to mark the academic progress they are leading at The University of Manchester.
The NIHR Manchester BRC and CRF launch event on 6 June 2017 represented a double celebration. An opportunity to share our aspirations for BRC and CRF, and also to mark the first anniversary of the GMHSCP devolution of the city region’s £6bn health and social care budget.
The Public Programmes Team, which leads on PPIE within the BRC and CRF, has secured a five year award from the Wellcome Trust Sustaining Excellence grant scheme following a rigorous and by invitation only review process.
