There is a wide variety of research which we support across the Trust
We can't do research without the support of our patients, service users, carers and the wider public
If you are treated in, or in contact with any one of our services, you may be invited to take part in clinical research. It is entirely up to you whether or not you wish to be involved
Healthy Volunteers can also take part in research
You can support research by taking part in Patient and Public Involvement - this ensures that the research we are doing in LPT reflects the needs of people with lived experience
Please email lpt.research@nhs.net to find out about research we are currently supporting and opportunities for you to get involved

Staff from all disciplines are already active in research, across all our services and making a real difference every day
We actively encourage our staff to participate by supporting research or to develop their own ideas in alliance with the patients and the public
The R&D team can work with you to develop your research ideas
You can work with the R&D team to support research we are hosting
