New Research Culture category in HSJ Awards – Deadline extended

The National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Clinical Research Network (CRN) are sponsoring a new award for ‘Research Culture’ in the 2011 Health Services Journal (HSJ) Awards.

The Award will be given to a Trust that has made a step-change in developing its research culture.

London (S) CLRN will be making a submission but we would like to encourage all London (South) member Trusts to enter.

The focus is on institutional change, development and innovation rather than quantity of activity. It is therefore relevant to a wide number of Trusts and does not mean that a large teaching hospital with a lot of research activity will by default win the Award.

The closing date for submissions has now been extended from 15 July 2011 to 22 July 2011 and it is free to enter.
