The Joint Clinical Research Board (JCRB) is a formal part of the structures of both QMUL and Barts Health.

The JCRB was established in 2016 by Barts Health and QMUL to provide assurance to both the Trust Board and Queen Mary's Senior Executive (QMSE) that our research is being carried out in accordance with:

• Trust and QMUL strategy and policy;
• Legal and regulatory requirements;
• Financial regulations; and
• The JCRB's formal Terms of Reference [PDF 172KB]

The JCRB’s remit includes all clinical research at Barts Health and QMUL’s School of Medicine and Dentistry, with a particular focus on research involving human subjects and tissues. It will, from time to time, set R&D activity targets and monitor progress in achieving them.

The JCRB is accountable directly to the Trust Board and to QMSE, via the Clinical and Academic Strategy Board and the School of Medicine and Dentistry’s Senior Executive Group (SMD-SEG) respectively.
