Local portfolio management

The National Institute for Health Research Clinical Research Network (NIHR CRN) Portfolio is a national data resource, will be used to manage the allocation of NHS infrastructure funding and will support the performance management of the NIHR Clinical Research Networks.

Details of studies which meet specific eiligibility criteria are recorded in a database, known as the NIHR Clinical Research Portfolio, which comprises the NIHR Portfolio in England, and the corresponding portfolios of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

Each CLRN works with investigators and researchers in its area to ensure study data is collected and entered into the Portfolio database.
