About North East and North Cumbria Primary Care Research

The North East and North Cumbria Regional Research Delivery Network is a branch of the National Institute of Health Research that provides the infrastructure to allow high-quality health and social research to take place across the region. Our team within the NENC RRDN supports study delivery across a range of settings, including primary care and secondary care and are known as the Study Support Service. The Study Support Service can provide the resources and tools needed to successfully deliver your study. 

Our team is able to provide support to Primary Care by completing local feasibility for studies, sharing new study opportunities, assistance with expressions of interest and delivering research within Primary Care settings. 

Each area has a dedicated Research Operations Coordinator or Research Operations Officer to provide support and act as a point of contact within the RDN as well as a link to study sponsors. We also have a dedicated team of NMAHPs and well as a Data Manager who can support practices with the delivery of research. You can find out more about the team in the 'About Us' section of the website.
