Introduction
The Institute houses groups funded through the University and the Medical Research Council (MRC). The University groups are members of the Nuffield Departments of Clinical Medicine (NDM) and Clinical Laboratory Sciences (NDCLS), Medical Oncology and the Department of Clinical Neurology. There are two MRC Units, the MRC Molecular Haematology Unit and the MRC Human Immunology Unit; the Units have links to NDCLS and NDM respectively. The University Department of Medical Oncology has eleven research groups based in the WIMM and comprises the Cancer Research UK (CRUK) Oxford Cancer Centre at the Institute with the CRUK Pathology Research Group in the NDCLS. The Medical Oncology Department has a Phase I/II Research Unit at the Churchill Hospital, with 8 beds dedicated for research, integrated with the NHS. Additional infrastructure support for specialized research assays in trials is provided at both sites via the Experimental Cancer Centre Programme, funded jointly by CRUK and NHS.
