Are you a GP interested in research delivery?
Then this advice from Dr Uwa Ima-Edomwonyi, GP at Donneybrook Medical Centre in Greater Manchester, is for you.
1. Link up with other colleagues who are already in research and learn from their experiences
2. Complete your GCP training on NIHR Learn
3. Build support with your practice colleagues. Assign a Research Lead within the practice, in our case I took on the role, and continue to encourage staff to engage with research activities
4. Finally, 100% reach out to your Regional Research Delivery Network. You just need to email them and they're really, really helpful, super supportive and they'll hold your hand through it all.
If you want to know more about getting started in research delivery within general practice, visit our website and read Uwa’s brilliant blog.
