  1. Case study university: best practice health research collaboration Dr David Langley & Prof Peter Mathieson

  2. Introductions and background Dr David Langley Director of Research and Enterprise Development Prof. Peter Mathieson Dean of Medicine and Dentistry

  3. Summary • The Bristol context • Bristol’s challenges • Bristol’s vision • How Bristol is responding • Lessons learned • Discussion

  4. The Bristol context • 2 Universities • University of Bristol • University of the West of England • 4 NHS Trusts • NHS Bristol (& 2 other local PCTs) • University Hospitals Bristol NHS FT • North Bristol NHS Trust • Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership • Strong regional, national and international collaborations

  5. Bristol’s challenges • Meet local and regional health needs • Build on strong foundation of existing activity and collaboration • Partner, integrate and respond strategically • Facilitate new ideas and new relationships • Accelerated adoption of research innovations • Increase and enhance links with industry • See our dispersed geography as an asset

  6. But…. • University of Bristol Medical School had dreadful RAE2001 outcome • much improved in RAE2008 • Relationship between 2 local HEIs was not ‘tight’ • Relationship between NHS partners was fragmented and little association with HEIs • Little coordination or interaction with research • Yet some great research going on despite this!

  7. How Bristol is responding • Severnside Alliance for Translational Research (SARTRE) • Bristol research and Innovation Group for Health (BRIG-H) • HIEC South West • AHSC • Continue to do great research and innovation

  8. SARTRE • Partnership Universities of Cardiff and Bristol, funded by MRC • Joint Professor of Practice in Translational Medicine (Lars Sundstrom) • Merge efforts in translational health research • A focal point for interactions with the Bio-Pharmaceutical industry • Successful MRC-DPFS devolved portfolio scheme

  9. BRIG-H • Bristol-wide partnership (4 NHS Trusts, 2 HEIs) • Decisive, active leadership by Vice-Chancellors and Trust CEOs • Led by Dean of Medicine, supported by senior colleagues from all 6 organisations • Integrated strategic approach to research and innovation • Focused ambitious programme • Address barriers to effective collaboration

  10. Structure

  11. BRIG-H • Joint events and symposia such as Bris’10 • Joint appointments – NHS R&D Director • Regular dialogue at many levels of organisations • Activities such as cancer strategy sponsored through BRIG-H • AHSC planning…..

  12. Strategic partnership between: • University of Bristol • University of the West of England • NHS Bristol • University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust • North Bristol NHS Trust • Avon & Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust http://www.bristol.ac.uk/fmd/brigh.html

  13. BRIG-H Strategic Aims • To improve the health of people in Bristol, the UK and beyond through better co-ordination of research, innovation and resources • To realise the full potential of health-related research and innovation in Bristol through effective partnership working • To foster excellence in people and infrastructure that impact on health-related research and innovation • To develop Bristol’s reputation for excellence and promote it nationally and internationally

  14. Bristol Health Research Strengths StrategicResearch Themes Infection & Immunity Musculoskeletal Oral Health & Disease Cancer Neuroscience Cardiovascular Children & Young People Mental Health & Addiction Population Health Methodology Research Major Funded Units & Centres Strategic Cross-cutting Platforms Translational Research Imaging Frontier Science & Technology Major Programme Funding and Project Grants

  15. HIEC- SW • A single HIEC for the South West • Multi-partner organisation • Promote pan-regional uptake and rapid diffusion of innovation into healthcare • Measure the improvement in quality • Develop a multi-professional workforce that is actively engaged in innovation.

  16. AHSC Bristol was unsuccessful in ‘official’ DoH AHSC call Nevertheless, broad agreement that we need to start to behave like one Project has started to realize this aim with all BRIG-H partners

  17. Ongoing challenges Politics – uncertainties, possibility of merging NHS Trusts Shared ambition – for Bristol and beyond? Different drivers and processes – national level Delivery – both ‘bottom up’ and ‘top down’ Stakeholder buy-in - need to see changes soon, not everyone agrees with vision Governance – not easy but Leadership driven Sustainability - funding and investment

  18. Lessons learned (& in progress!) • Essential first step is convincing partner organisations (at senior level) that each is not strong enough on its own and that together we can be greater than the sum of the parts • Money is a powerful motivator! • Individuals can make or break initiatives • Frequent frank dialogue is essential • “Big picture” is best antidote to parochialism

  19. The opportunity: NIHR funding for clinical research in England

  20. This is a time of unprecedented opportunity for biomedical research... ...how well-placed are you in Canterbury to seize the opportunities?
