Springtime Lectures

The UCLH portfolio of some 1300 on going medical research studies has been acknowledged by the Department of Health as one of the most important and influential in the UK. As part of our commitment to involving the public in shaping the future of medical research at UCLH, we are proud to present this springtime series of lectures for the lay public about aspects of the medical research taking place here.

We hope you will enjoy them.

The lectures, aimed at lay people will each be delivered twice (except those on 22nd and 24th May), to enable a wide audience to hear them.

The lectures will be of special interest to patients and their carers who have participated in research in the past or who are currently taking part in research. Later on (see the Invitation attached) we are inviting you to the inaugural meeting of the Research Patients’ and Carers’ Support Network.

The aim of the Network is to create a dialogue between research patients, their carers and research teams. The purpose of the meeting is for you to have your say about what the Network can do for you.

In the meantime please bring your family and friends and enjoy our very special research lectures given by our eminent researchers.

Welcome
