Early Engagement Process
Early Engagement with the NIHR HRC in Sustainable Innovation
We are excited to learn more about your project and how we might collaborate.
To help us better understand your proposal and facilitate the review process, we kindly ask that you:
1. Record a 2-minute video “elevator pitch” summarising your project.
This should be easily understandable by a lay audience, as it will be shared with non-clinicians and members of our Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) group. Your video should include:
- What is your device/technology/medicine/service?.
- How does your device/technology/medicine/service work?
- How do/will patients benefit from it?
- What do you require from the HRC?
Email your video to rduh.uoe.hrc@nhs.net
2. Complete the Early Engagement Form (EEF).
- If your project includes sensitive details requiring a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA), please let us know. We are happy to sign one before you proceed.
- Where applicable, kindly include links to your website or any relevant online resources to provide additional context where applicable.
3. Review the HRC introduction presentation
- Learn more about who we are, what we offer, and how we can support innovative projects in sustainable healthcare.
