The Dermatology Research Unit was established in 2009 by Professor Andrew Wright and Jenny Ott (Research Nurse). Recruitment to trials, began right from the start and to date the team have been involved in and completed numerous portfolio and commercial trials. The team expanded and now includes research nurse Carol Denniss, and Research Assistant Rifat Bi. The team has good links with the Bradford Centre for Skin Sciences, Nottingham CTRU, Leeds CTRU, Born in Bradford (BIB) and the Bradford University Ethical Tissue Bank. We have also worked with Covance as a PIC site thus helping in the early stages in developing new medications and treatments.
