NIHR Clinical Research Network: North West Coast (CRN NWC)

Only through research can health and social care organisations find ways to improve prevention, diagnosis, care and treatment for patients and the public. Clinical Research Networks are key enablers in this research goal, ensuring clinical research studies recruit patients so research questions can be answered and healthcare can advance.
