Research
PCRS offers a great learning environment and network for the exchange of thinking between clinicians and researchers.
PCRS is grounded in real world clinical practice and service development and is a truly multi-disciplinary society. We welcome professionals from all backgrounds (clinical and non-clinical). We have a strong heritage in research, setting up the first chair in primary care respiratory medicine at Aberdeen University in 2000 and developing a leading primary care academic journal now published as npj Primary Care Respiratory Medicine.
PCRS is committed to supporting academic research that solves real world, primary care respiratory problems and welcome all those involved in primary care respiratory research, from PhD students through to retirees.
