Glasgow Royal Infirmary ICU Research
Glasgow Royal Infirmary
At Glasgow Royal Infirmary ICU we are enthusiastic about providing our patients with access to clinical research and are active participants in multi-centre trials. In addition, we have close links to the University of Glasgow Academic department of Anaesthesia and Critical Care and run our own original research program.
We welcome research fellows to work in ICU and in our research group to gain experience in collaborating and leading research often leading to the award of higher degrees. We have successfully supported ICM trainees during a Specialist Study Year (Research) and offer opportunities for trainees including Associate PI scheme and study involvement.

Oxford Critical Care Research Group
University of Oxford
Mutidisciplinary Group
The Oxford Critical Care Research Group is a highly multi-disciplinary team, including clinicians, nurses, physiotherapists, biomedical engineers and statisticians.
We have a successful history of conducting research in and around the critical care environment, focussing on early patient deterioration and long-term clinical outcomes of patients who have been admitted to an intensive care unit. Further details of our research themes can be found here: Research themes — Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences (ox.ac.uk).
The group has strong and ongoing collaborations with the Department of Engineering at the University of Oxford, the Centre for Statistics in Medicine at the University of Oxford, ICNARC and the universities of Southampton and Portsmouth. These collaborations bring additional expertise in the fields of artificial intelligence, advanced statistical modelling and clinical trial management.
The group’s research activities are also supported by several NHS Trusts and their clinical teams, for example the Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust ICU, South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust and Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust.
We host postgraduate projects and provide research secondment opportunities for doctors and allied health professionals. We are heavily involved in the NIHR academic foundation and academic clinical fellowship programmes, providing academic training to junior clinicians.
Queen Mary University of London
Critical Care and Peri-operative Medicine Group
Mutidisciplinary Group
Within our team we have a wide range of research expertise allowing us to tackle research questions through a variety of research methods from laboratory experiments to large clinical trials, epidemiological studies and qualitative research. Our research is carried out at our hospitals: the Royal London, St Bartholomew's, Newham, Whipps Cross and in the laboratory facilities at the William Harvey Research Institute.
Manchester Academic Critical Care (MACC)
Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust
Mutidisciplinary Group
Manchester Academic Critical Care (MACC) is a collaboration between The University of Manchester’s teaching hospitals. Our research focuses on data synthesis and hypothesis testing in the critically ill. We develop research skills in local researchers and trainees through placements on our projects. We conduct novel and innovative primary research, partner with industry, and support recruitment to NIHR portfolio studies.
Queen’s University of Belfast Critical Care Research Group
Belfast Health & Social Care Trust
Mutidisciplinary Group
The Belfast critical care research group is a highly productive, growing, multidisciplinary research group encompassing all aspects of critical illness.
We have a range of interests from basic science, translational research, clinical trials and evidence synthesis, encompassing paediatric and adult emergency medicine, critical care, and perioperative medicine. Our diverse background includes scientists, physicians, nurses and allied health professionals.
We work closely with the Intensive Care Units at Royal Victoria Hospital (regional trauma and neurosurgical centre, 32 beds) and Belfast City Hospital (elective surgery, haem-oncology centre, 10 beds), and with other clinical departments in the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust. The Wellcome-Wolfson Institute for Experimental Medicine in which we are based is a state-of-the-art research environment for laboratory science, and we work closely with the NI Clinical Research Facility for early phase clinical trials.
We welcome interest from potential collaborators, students, or research fellows, and are always happy to discuss opportunities to come and work with us, either in person here in Belfast or remotely wherever you are.

Places of Work
Edinburgh Critical Care Research Group
The Edinburgh Critical Care Research Group (ECCRG) is an enthusiastic, multi-disciplinary team, whose bench to bedside approach to research bridges from basic science through to large-scale clinical projects.
Within critical care, our research covers a wide range of areas including sedation, blood transfusion, genomics, sepsis, inflammation and optical imaging. Our neuroscience work focusses on the management of traumatic brain injury, and our team collaborates with University basic science colleagues in this area. We are also very interested in recovery from critical illness and have a multidisciplinary group of doctors, nurses, dietitians and physiotherapists all working together for the benefit of critical care patients.
The group also supports an expanding perioperative research portfolio where we have strong links with colleagues in surgery and anaesthesia.
Members of the ECCRG has extensive expertise in epidemiology and health services research, in particular, to use large linked databases in Scotland and the UK, to study outcomes following critical care and major surgery.
