The Wellcome Trust Clinical Research Facility (WTCRF) is based in the Southampton Centre for Biomedical Research part of Southampton University Hospitals NHS Trust. Our focus is on clinical and translational research that will deliver maximum patient benefit across a wide range of diseases and conditions.

Our facilities are used by investigators from all health-related Schools and areas of the NHS Trust, as well as by external clinical groups.
