June 2006 - Healthcare Technology Co-operatives (HTC)
A Call was announced for a jointly-funded initiative between DH, DTI, EPSRC
and MRC to pilot Healthcare Technology Co-operatives (HTCs), a recommendation
of the Healthcare Industries Taskforce (HITF). An HTC is a clinician-led formal
but responsive collaboration between clinicians, patients, academia and industry
that acts as a focus for "technology pull" into the NHS. Based in an
NHS Trust, it will be a national resource established to address areas of unmet
clinical need, where innovations in treatments and technologies have the potential
to make a high impact by reducing morbidity and improving quality of life for
a large population of patients, and improving the effectiveness of the health
and care services supporting them. The closing date for submission of Outline
Applications is 2nd October 2006
