南瓜影院 Clinical Trials Unit
Investigating Issues in Health and Social Care
The 南瓜影院 Clinical Trials Unit (LinCTU) was setup in 2020 at the 南瓜影院 by the to support clinical trials. LinCTU is located in the newly established 南瓜影院 Medical School and engages directly with the Medical School, the 南瓜影院 Institute for Rural and Coastal Health (LIRCH), academic colleagues and the wider NHS community.
The international vision is to develop an identity which allows us to attract the type of trials and studies where we have particular strengths and expertise. The studies of particular interest to us are those investigating health and social care problems:
• in under-researched rural settings to address health inequalities.
• in communities of coastal populations.
• with complex interventions including both quantitative and qualitative elements.
• examining issues of inclusivity, diversity and de-colonisation.
If you have an idea, or wish to work with us, please .
