Connecting research and education

Each Ramsay Cancer Care Centre will have to have access to a clinical trials unit that offers clinical trials to cancer patients.

Each Clinical Trials Unit will form the hub for research activities in the hospital and will work with the service line to improve access to research and to embed research in care delivery.

Each Clinical Trials Unit will also be a part of the Ramsay Research Institute and as a national research group will seek to develop some key achievements that will support the growth and advancement of research nationally.
