Researchers working across the four United Kingdom countries should find it easier to set up and carry out health research across the NHS. This is thanks to the UK research approval bodies carrying out a new programme of work to implement
- A consistent nationwide approach to sharing information between sponsor and sites
- A single ethics and R&D online submission from the Integrated Research Application System (IRAS), and
- An improved UK-wide approach to amendments.
The aim is to ensure compatible and consistent ways of working across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland further developing the UK as a cohesive and streamlined place to undertake research within the global economy.
Sponsors of both commercial and non-commercial research will benefit from these changes, particularly when setting up studies with sites in more than one UK country.
