Further contributions to clinical trials
SPIRIT-Path
The SPIRIT-Path project aims to improve clinical trials involving pathology samples by developing International Guidance on the Inclusion of Pathology in Clinical Trial Protocols. It aims to create transparent, systematic methods to improve the quality and consistency of pathology-based research. Dr Tim Kendall is co-Chair of this study.
Trial management
Our clinical trials are managed through the Academic and Clinical Central Office for Research and Development (ACCORD), a partnership between the University of Edinburgh and NHS Lothian Health Board.
