Research with care
Research with care
CPFT is a top research active NHS trust and hosts the NIHR Applied Research Collaboration East of England. We work with global, national and local partners to conduct high quality, groundbreaking research into mental and physical health, and support innovation to improve care services.
Every year we run studies with thousands of participants to learn more about conditions and find new therapies and treatments that work for different people. Our research translates the latest scientific discoveries and evidence into NHS care at CPFT.
Participant feedback: What people say about our research
"We have found everyone we have come into contact with at the Windsor Research Unit without exception to be delightful - we have decided that must be a criteria for working there! Thank you again."
“Being involved in research has given me a sense of purpose in life. I am contributing to society and the memories of my experiences with mental health services back in the past are now being used for the good of others.”
“Taking part in research isn’t about what you will gain from it but how others will gain from it later on in time. Taking part has enriched our lives in more waysthan we could have ever imagined.”
“I would urge anyone eligible to consider taking part in research. Your contribution could make a huge difference to people affected by similar conditions and improve their lives, increasing the chance of finding successful treatments in future.”
“We recommend and wish to encourage others to take part too, for change can only happen when we take part.”
