- EMS Healthcare are excited to share that we're working with NIHR CRN North West Coast by providing them with a 'mobile research bus' to support with taking clinical research into the heart of communities across the North West.
The mobile research unit is named "Kitty" after Catherine Wilkinson, who saved many lives from cholera by opening the first public washhouse in Liverpool in 1832. The bus is helping to directly engage with local communities and providing accessible trial sites to enable more people to contribute towards health research.
Greg Woodley, Head of Communications and Engagement at NIHR, said: "I think it's really important that we take research into our communities because if we fail to do that, we won't make our recruitment into clinical research and social care research inclusive and representative enough and we'll only make medicines and treatments that are right for a very selective cohort of patients. So it's imperative for us that we take our research out to the communities."
Kitty, the mobile research bus, will be joining us for The Great North Research Conference in the Concorde Conference Centre at Manchester Airport on the 21st and 22nd November. Come and say hello to the team, and hear how we are supporting some of the UK’s largest clinical research programmes.
