Our Mission

an organisation that unites the diverse stakeholders
involved in critical care research in the UK

Who We Are

Clinicians, researchers, academic institutions, professional groups, and national and regional research groups with critical care interest.

What We Do

Our mission is to improve patient outcomes by developing new treatments, testing innovative ways to improve care delivery, and by identifying better ways to translate knowledge into practice.

How Do We Do This?

We aim to provide an environment for multi-disciplinary critical care professionals and academics to share experience, develop new research, and encourage the wide-spread participation in research studies. We hold an annual conference and share research opportunities throughout the year. We are supported and hosted by the Intensive Care Society.
