Clinical research: how to be involved

The Northern Ireland Clinical Research Network (NICRN) undertakes research in a range of medical fields, which have recently been expanded to include mental health. The NICRN is part of a UK-wide initiative to provide opportunities for patients and clinicians to participate in high-quality clinical research.

This suite of leaflets provides both the public and clinical researchers with an introduction to the work of the NICRN. They provide an overview of the NICRN’s goals and highlight what the network can offer to patients, carers and researchers. Each leaflet includes specific details on the NICRN’s work in that area and reasons why clinical research plays such a vital role in improving the delivery of health and social care
