Scottish School of Primary Care
The Scottish School of Primary Care works with researchers in primary care across Scotland to develop programmes of research, increase study recruitment and increase opportunities for higher level research career opportunities
The prime focus of the SSPC is the conduct of internationally recognised, methodologically rigorous research in primary health care. The consortium has identified that the best way to develop this capability is through three inter-linked workstreams:
- Workstream A to develop programmes of internationally recognised, methodologically rigorous research which address important issues in Scotland and beyond.
- Workstream B to increase recruitment to trials and other methodologically rigorous research.
- Workstream C to ensure higher level career development opportunities.
This model includes a strengthening of academic leadership across the School with a director and other senior researchers (a research chair and two senior lecturers) supported by colleagues from a wide range of professions and disciplines working in several institutions supported by a small core administrative team.
