The Translation Manchester Research Network (TMRN) brings together groups and organisations which support health-related translational research projects at all stages- whether they be in the early discovery stages or advancing towards adoption and spread. The TMRN is a one-stop shop for all of your translational research support needs.

Since February 2021, we have been running monthly online seminars open to all researchers across the University. This is a unique opportunity for you to connect with Translation Manchester Research Network (TMRN) partners and hear how they can help support and progress translational research projects. The growing network includes organisations from across the University, Greater Manchester NHS Trusts and industry. With network members supporting projects at each phase of the translational research pathway, this is your opportunity to meet them and develop future collaborations.

The last event of these monthly seminars was held virtually on the 25th May 2022 13:00 -14:00. Speakers will be Dr Mohammed Zubair from The University of Manchester Clinical Trial Sponsorship team and Joanne Summers from The University of Manchester Knowledge Exchange Partnership Team.

Regulated research activity and high risk studies.

How do you support researchers in Manchester?

We offer broad and in-depth expertise in guiding the translation of research and navigating regulatory requirements including sponsoring clinical trials (ATIMPs and re-purposing drugs, devices and other complex and high-risk interventions). We support regulated research activity, including drug trials, medical device trials (including implantable, diagnostic testing, and software/algorithms), analysis of samples linked to trials, human tissue (research and application) and other high risk studies. We have experience of working with both non-commercial and commercial funders as well as pharma companies involved in the supply of medicinal products or devices. In addition as sponsor we have experience of working with a number of UKCRC clinical trials units or CROs involved in the management of the University’s sponsored trials
