Users

The following series of Users indicates those groups and/or organisations that have or will in the future have an interest in the findings of the project. In some cases they are already in contact with the project teams.

Each User has been classified (in italics) according to one of the following types:

Department of Health NHS agency/trust
Clinical practitioners International agencies
Professional associations and societies Patient groups/lobbies
Patient charities Specific commissions
Parliamentary groups Private sector firms
Academic groups/associations Regulatory agencies
Public health agencies Other

This allows for clustering of groups according to type and will facilitate dissemination at the right level, targeted for a specific audience. It also enables us to see where there are the same, or very similar Users of different projects who might be interested in outputs from project other than that to which they were originally associated.

This list of Users is by no means complete. Please check back regularly for updates
