NW-CORR

North West Collaborative Organisation for Respiratory Research

NW-CORR is a respiratory registrar-led group of trainee physicians that aims to promote and deliver research.

​

We have a wealth of talent in the North West and Mersey deaneries, so we hope to leverage this to support interested trainees, regardless of previous experience, to design and perform projects in order to answer important clinical questions.

​

If you might want to get involved, or have a project idea, please do get in touch!
