Research

Research is at the Heart of Leeds Teaching Hospitals. We believe that being involved in cutting-edge research helps us provide better care to our patients.

The Trust has an enviable reputation for research and innovation and aims to ensure our patients benefit from advances in clinical science and technology by improving access to world-leading research studies and translating the results of research into improved patient care.

Research and Innovation has a crucial role in the advancing healthcare and improving patient outcomes. Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, one of the largest teaching hospital trusts in the United Kingdom, is actively involved in various research and innovation initiatives.

Leeds Teaching Hospitals works in partnership with academic institutions, industry partners, and other healthcare organisations to foster a culture of research and innovation. The trust comprises several hospitals. These include Leeds General Infirmary, St James’s University Hospital, Leeds Children’s Hospital, and Chapel Allerton Hospital, which serve as important hubs for research and innovation activities.
