How we work

We work in partnership with Chief Investigators and their associated teams from initial design through to publication of primary results. We provide expertise in trial methodology, statistics, qualitative research and health economics research.

Our studies

BTC has a strong track record of leading world class clinical trials. With a diverse portfolio of studies across multiple clinical specialties, intervention types, and all stages of the research pathway, we are experts in the design and conduct of high-quality pragmatic randomised controlled trials using innovative trial design.

We work across a broad funding landscape, successfully delivering studies supported by major funders including the Medical Research Council (MRC) for early-phase and experimental medicine research, NIHR Research for Patient Benefit (RfPB) for applied health studies, NIHR Efficacy and Mechanism Evaluation (EME) for mechanistic understanding, and NIHR Health Technology Assessment (HTA) for large, practice-changing evaluations.

This breadth of experience allows us to tailor methodological approaches to the aims of each study and the expectations of different funders, ensuring trials are robust, efficient, and impactful.

We will consider applications for collaboration on any studies that will have a positive impact on decision making for policy makers, patients and clinicians.
