These drop-in lunches are a chance for researchers, staff and students to discuss their general or study-specific questions about Research and Development.

This is a great opportunity to learn more about the different ways that the Joint R&D Office of South London and Maudsley and the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience are able to support you, while enjoying some free pizza!

Support staff from the Joint R&D Office will be on hand, alongside the South London and Maudsley Research Delivery Team, the King's Health Partners Clinical Trials Office (KHP CTO), King's Clinical Research Facility (CRF) and other teams.

We will aim to answer your questions around:

• Set up, Amendments and Governance Processes
• Contracts and Funding
• Regulatory Approvals
• Support Departments (KHP CTO, King's CRF, Pharmacy)
• EDGE
• Commercial Studies

These sessions will also help us to understand how to improve our processes, making the managing and delivery of studies smoother for all.
