About us

The Research on Research (RoR) Team

We are based at the School of Healthcare Enterprise and Innovation, the University of Southampton as part of the NIHR Evaluation, Trials and Studies Coordinating Centre. We investigate and provide robust evidence on the management, delivery and dissemination of research among funders and the wider research community.

Collaborations and support

The Research on Research registry and hub collaborates with initiatives and groups that look at specific areas of research activity to support our aim of bringing together and connecting different communities within the research on research space. We also support and are supported by these groups working in projects, organising events or presenting seminars.​

TrialForge promotes a systematic approach to making trials more efficient by looking across all processes and adding up small gains in design and delivery, improving the trial system as a whole.
