FORUM workshop on cross-sector mobility

This invite-only workshop, run as part of the Academy's FORUM programme, focussed on the cross-sector movement of research staff throughout their careers, and how this may contribute to the sustainability of health research in the UK.

Discussions have contributed to the Academy's project on the long-term sustainability of health research in the UK. A report of the workshop will be available as part of the project publications.

The workshop brought together experts from academia, the NHS, industry, charities and more to develop a shared understanding of the value of cross-sector mobility, as well as a series of action-oriented recommendations to support and improve cross-sector mobility.

The Academy’s FORUM provides a neutral and independent platform for individuals from across academia, industry, the NHS and Government, and the charity, regulatory and wider healthcare sector, to meet and take forward national discussions on scientific opportunities, technology trends and associated strategic choices for healthcare. Find out more.
