Research and clinical trials

Research is vital to improving the care that you receive when you're unwell. You can help improve healthcare by taking part in research studies at our Trust. During your appointment, ask your healthcare professional about research. They'll be happy to tell you about research studies you could be eligible to join.

Our teaching and research programme is internationally renowned. We're involved in a number of clinical trials to better understand bladder and urethra conditions.
