What is the TMRC?
The TMRC is a unique collaboration partnering 4 Scottish universities, 4 NHS trusts, Scottish Enterprise and Wyeth, a top ten global pharmaceutical company.
The conceptual development of the programme involves the establishment of a core Research Laboratory linking with the four major clinical academic centres at the Universities of Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow and the NHS in Scotland, initially working with NHS Grampian, NHS Greater Glasgow, NHS Lothian and NHS Tayside. The collaboration therefore covers over 70% of the Scottish population.
