“As a member of the UK Health Data Research Alliance, Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust is delighted to be supporting the Health Data Science Black Internship Programme.

 

“Having interviewed an outstanding group of candidates – and part-funded by NIHR Manchester Biomedical Research Centre – we are delighted to have appointed three new colleagues under the Black Internship Programme to support data projects across our Trust, hosted infrastructure and Clinical Data Sciences Unit (CDSU). I look forward to welcoming our new colleagues to the MFT Innovation Team.
