Dr Steve Woby, director of research and development at The Pennine Acute Trust said:
“Over the past year we have worked incredibly hard to deliver a number of key initiatives aimed at integrating research into the core NHS business of the Trust and ensuring that we provide research opportunities for as many of our patients as possible. We are extremely proud of what we have accomplished and feel absolutely delighted and honoured at being shortlisted for the highly coveted HSJ Award for Clinical Research Impact.”
