NHS R&D Forum Groups
Research Quality Working Group
The Research Quality Working Group Working Group brings together individuals with experience and expertise in research quality assurance. With new research governance and quality standards being introduced, it is important we respond to the needs of our community. The group’s remit is to act as a source of expertise and support for the development, implementation and sharing of best practice for research quality. The groups works with key stakeholders including the HRA, NIHR, NHS England and other partner organisations to influence and support the development of key policies and guidance in relation to quality assurance for our NHS R&D community.
