This network is one of eight local research networks funded by the Department of Health to facilitate the conduct of randomised control trials and other well-designed studies of stroke, including those for prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

We are a group of doctors, nurses, therapists, lay people and researchers with experience of stroke from the West Midlands.

Our vision is that we will work together to facilitate the conduct of high quality clinical research and foster the integration of research into clinical practice to prevent strokes and to achieve better outcomes. We aim to improve quality of life for stroke patients and their families.

Mission: To increase the opportunities for stroke patients and their carers in the West Midlands to take part in clinical trials and other well- designed studies which are properly conducted by trained staff.

This website, which is currently under construction, will provide information about the work of the network and the people involved. It is open to anyone interested in the subject, and we hope you enjoy browsing.
