Information for researchers who need to undertake their research within the NHS
A Research Passport is a system for enabling researchers who have no employment contract with a particular NHS trust to gain access to conduct research within that and other NHS organisations.
The Research Passport system provides a mechanism for NHS organisations to be assured that the appropriate pre-engagement checks have been carried out on persons wanting access to the NHS trust to conduct research.
This system standardises procedures for handling honorary research contracts and letters of access for researchers.
