Alongside the Research Streams, Centre-wide groups bring together expertise from across our community to support training and development, research culture, patient and public involvement and engagement, data governance, clinical studies, and knowledge exchange and commercial engagement.
Supporting doctoral training, skills development, mentoring and career development across the Centre.
Developing an inclusive, collaborative research environment in which people across disciplines, institutions and career stages can contribute and develop.
Embedding the perspectives of people affected by immune-mediated inflammatory disease across the Centre’s research and wider activities.
Supporting responsible, consistent and effective approaches to data access, management and sharing across the Centre.
Supporting coordination and oversight of experimental medicine, clinical intervention and observational studies across the Centre.
Building relationships with industry and other external partners to support knowledge exchange, collaboration and translation.
The Centre is led by the University of Birmingham and brings together researchers and clinical teams across eight partner institutions in the UK and internationally. Each contributes complementary expertise, infrastructure, patient cohorts and research capabilities to the Centre’s programme.
The Centre works with organisations beyond our university partners, including industry, charities, healthcare organisations and patient groups.
These partnerships can bring complementary expertise, technologies, data and therapeutic assets, support knowledge exchange and collaboration, and help translate promising discoveries towards patient benefit.
