MRC-University of Glasgow Centre for Virus Research 8 Church Street Glasgow G11 5JR ScotlandIntroduction Welcome to the Hepatitis C Virus Research UK website. This website aims to supply information relating to HCV for patient, nurse and researcher alike. Here, you will find links to each section which will allow you to find out information on aspects of HCV infection, sample collection, storage and anonymous data collection, all projects/research linked to HCV research UK, relevant HCV news, and more. Contained on this site is information about how to apply for samples for your research project. Click on the bold heading of the desired section below for quick access to that section. About Us HCV Research UK is a consortium of leading figures in the UK from the clinical and scientific community with specific interest in hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Its principal objective is to establish a national clinical research database and biobank (a bank of samples) for promoting research studies into HCV infection. Our aim is to create a multidisciplinary infrastructure that links major UK liver centres involved in management of HCV-infected patients to basic science centres of excellence. Within this consortium are also links to the Health Protection Agency (HPA) and Health Protection Scotland (HPS), i.e. the national bodies responsible for monitoring HCV infection in the UK. To achieve these aims, HCV Research UK has been funded by the Medical Research Foundation (MRF) to establish a national cohort of up to 10,000 HCV-infected people recruited from medical centres across the country. This proposed cohort size will support research into a diverse set of questions that are critical for understanding key issues associated with HCV infection such as what factors determine spontaneous clearance of the virus, response to drug therapy, and development of liver disease including cirrhosis and liver cancer.
Site Information
The Contract Research Map is owned and maintained by Scientist.com. It was created to help researchers in the life sciences identify and connect with contract research organizations (CROs) based on geography. Updated nightly, this map features all of the available CROs within our network, so you can order services with a few clicks. Click on a specific country, scroll on the map itself or type into the search bar at the top—there are many ways to find the location and suppliers that you’re looking for. From Argentina to New Zealand, use this map to connect with a CRO near you.
We believe that every researcher across the world should be able to connect with the thousands of global CROs that exist and have the opportunity to work together. Like many industries,the life science supply chain has been disrupted over the last year. But there are many other circumstances such as international customs regulations or sensitive shipping times that create limitations around which countries are feasible to partner with. Sometimes, finding a CRO based in a country that best suits your research needs is imperative. We hope this contract research map allows you to find the right partner in the right place at the right time.
