Governance

CRUK RadNet Manchester governance is separated over three levels.

  • A Programme Board
  • A Leadership Group
  • An International Advisory Board

 

The majority of the operational governance is led by a Programme Board, consisting of the Director, Professor Robert Bristow, Deputy Directors Professor Kaye Williams and Professor Catharine West, the Programme Managers, Clare Dempsey and Lauren Hewitt, and Education Lead, Rachel Chown. Together, they shape the direction and delivery of the Unit.

 

The Leadership Group, consisting of academic directors, scientific leaders, and project managers regularly meet to update about the individual work packages and hubs, ensuring cohesive and aligned research priorities.

 

Finally, RadNet Manchester benefits from the international recognition and expertise of the members of the RadNet International Advisory Board. They help to ensure research activities have the impact and recognition on an international scale and ensure synergy between other activities across Manchester.

 

CRUK RadNet Manchester also leverages the existing radiotherapy infrastructure and expertise that currently exists in Manchester, including facilities at The Christie, academic expertise at the University of Manchester, and existing research programmes and activities through other CRUK facilities across Manchester, the NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre and many more.
